A probationer accused of trying to sexually assault a woman near a Home Gardens school was charged Wednesday with assault with intent to commit rape.

Alexander Jason Armenta, 45, of Jurupa Valley was arrested Sunday following a Riverside County Sheriff’s Department investigation.

Armenta, who is being held in lieu of $250,000 bail at the Robert Presley Jail, was slated to make his initial court appearance Wednesday afternoon at the Riverside Hall of Justice.

According to sheriff’s Lt. Steve Favero, shortly before 6 p.m. Sunday, the defendant confronted two women in the 3700 block of Harvill Lane, in the area of Villegas Middle School and the Lincoln Square shopping center.

Favero alleged that Armenta became physical with the women, one of whom was identified in court documents by her initials, “A.F.” The criminal complaint named her as the only victim. She did not require medical attention.

Patrol deputies reached the location minutes later and quickly identified the defendant as the alleged assailant, Favero said.

Armenta was immediately taken into custody without incident in the area of Harvill and Magnolia Avenue.

According to court records, he has prior misdemeanor convictions for child endangerment and trespassing.
