A Bloomington man was arrested after he allegedly drugged and raped a woman he met on an online dating app, authorities said.
The San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department said 37-year-old Luis David Garcia met the victim on Tinder and invited the woman to his home on the 9700 block of Locust Avenue on Tuesday.
“She shows up and then during that time while she was at his residence she was rendered unconscious and awoke to him performing sexual acts on her,” said Cpl. Adam Cervantes with the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department.
The victim was able to get away and call 911.
“Our Fontana Sheriff’s station got a call for service just after 3 a.m. So, they responded, made contact with her, got a statement then she was sent to a local area hospital for treatment,” said Cpl. Cervantes.
Investigators obtained a search warrant and went to Garcia’s residence on the 9700 block of Locust Avenue in Bloomington. Garcia was detained and transported to Fontana’s Sheriff’s station for further investigation. He was then arrested.
