TAMPA, FL. – A 31-year-old man has been arrested in connection with the attack and sexual battery of a woman that happened on the side of a road in Tampa.
Deputies with Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office have arrested Elieser Alvarez Lima, 31.
He was arrested without incident, according to deputies.
At approximately 4:30 a.m. on July 25, 2021, the victim was walking home from the Aqua Lounge located at 4203 W Waters Avenue in Tampa.
Near the 4000 block W Humphrey Street, Lima approached the victim and proceeded to choke the woman and strike her in the face.
Deputies say a struggle ensued, and Lima sexually battered the victim. She sustained multiple physical injuries during the course of the incident.
“I want to commend this victim for the strength she showed when she came forward to report what happened to her,” said Sheriff Chad Chronister. “We must do everything we can as a community to get this dangerous individual off of our streets, which is why we are requesting the public’s assistance to identify him. Please share this composite sketch with your neighbors. It is imperative that we find this suspect before he victimizes anyone else.”
Alverez Lima is currently being held at the Orient Road Jail.
