A woman attacked while doing her laundry in her apartment complex laundry room during the early morning hours Monday was able to get away and call police who found and arrested the man.

Altamonte Springs police said they arrested 60-year-old Steven Shepard after responding to a call from the victim that she had been sexually assaulted.

The victim told officers around 4 a.m., she was getting laundry she had in the clubhouse laundry room, when Shepard entered wearing only a shirt that belonged to her, pushed her to the ground and sexually assaulted her.

Investigators say Shepard was wearing eye liner and told them he was a cross dresser, and when asked why he ran from officers, he said because he knew he was trespassing.

Shepard faces charges of false imprisonment, battery, loitering and indecent exposure.
