A 27-year-old man was arrested for first-degree burglary and sexual assault Saturday night during a disturbance on South Scenic Avenue, the Greene County Sheriff’s Department said.

Deputies came upon the disturbance in progress during a DWI Saturation Patrol Saturday evening.

The suspect tried to conceal his identity by giving deputies a false name, Gipson said. He also was found to be an illegal immigrant.

Formal charges against the man have not yet been filed, according to Cpt. Randy Gibson with the Greene County Sheriff’s Department. Charges are expected to come in the next 24 hours, he said.

The man is being held in the Greene County Jail awaiting action by the Immigration Control and Enforcement Agency. The investigation into the burglary and sexual assault incident is ongoing, Gipson said.
