Dallas police today released the identity of the man believed to be responsible for raping two children in northeast Dallas.

He was identified as Jose Rico, 33, an illegal immigrant, police said.

Rico was being held in the Dallas County jail on charges of aggravated sexual assault and burglary of a habitation.

He is also under an immigration hold.

Rico was arrested earlier this month on the burglary charge, court records show. While he was in jail, Dallas police linked him to an Oct. 16 rape, based on statements from witnesses.

According to court records, Rico lived within three blocks of where that rape occurred.

A second sexual assault charge is pending against him for a Jan. 30 rape. Authorities are awaiting DNA test results in that case.

In both assaults, the victims -- girls between 12 and 14 -- were home alone when a man entered through an unlocked doors. Both girls were bound before they were raped.

The Oct. 16 assault occurred about 7:45 a.m. in the 6400 block of Melody Lane, near Northwest Highway and Skillman. The attacker, wearing a white sweater, white jeans and white gloves, entered the home while the girl and an 11-month-old baby were alone.

The man confronted the girl as she was coming out of a bathroom, pushed her back in and turned off the lights. He threatened to hurt the baby if she screamed.

The Jan. 30 attack happened at 7:55 a.m. inside an apartment in the 6000 block of Pineland Drive, near Greenville Avenue and Walnut Hill Lane. A man with a similar description bound and raped a girl while she was home alone.
