CHAPEL HILL – Police have charged 20-year-old Dontay Awtwanne Rone with two counts of sexual assault.

The first offense occurred June 20 at roughly 9:26 a.m. when a female student was touched on her buttocks after being followed from Franklin Street to the Paul Green Theater on campus.

The second offense occurred at roughly 8:15 a.m. Thursday.  The victim, a female UNC student, was walking from the intersection of Cameron Avenue and South Columbia Street when she was allegedly followed by the suspect and assaulted by being touched on her buttocks when she went inside Carroll Hall.

Police acted quickly to apprehend and charge non-UNC student Rone with both counts of assault that occurred on campus.
