Police in Madison say a hodge-podge of video connected them to the man suspected of raping and beating a young UW student last weekend.
Officers yesterday said they’ve arrested 26-year-old Brandon Thompson for the attack on Sunday. Madison Police Chief Shon Barnes says there is video that shows Thompson following the young woman before the attack. Madison Police also stopped Thompson earlier in the night for a registration violation. Officers say video from that stop helped link Thompson to the attack as well.
He is looking at tentative charges for first-degree reckless injury, first-degree sexual assault, and strangulation.
