Man arrested after ‘heinous attack’ on woman in Miami Beach – NBC 6 South Florida

Miami Beach police have arrested a suspect after a woman was sexually assaulted on the Beachwalk earlier this week.

Keith Hill Jr., 30, was identified and found in Hollywood and taken into custody, Miami Beach Police Chief Wayne A. Jones said Friday.

The attack occurred at 1 a.m. Tuesday between 23rd and 24th streets. Police said the victim was roller skating when a man brazenly grabbed her from behind and sexually assaulted her without provocation.

“This is a very, very heinous attack and our organization takes it very, very seriously,” Miami Beach Police Detective Chris Bess said earlier this week.

The suspect was allegedly captured on surveillance video.
