Nebraskan arrested in assault

GERING, Neb. (AP) — A 50-year-old Gering man has been arrested, accused of sexual assault and aggravated domestic assault.

Authorities say a 48-year-old woman reported that the man came home and forced her to have sex three times Thursday, despite her pleas to stop.

She was treated later for bruises, abrasions and other injuries.

An arrest affidavit says the man acknowledged being at the home, but he made no other statements.

He was arrested Saturday night.

A Scotts Bluff County jailer said the man remained in custody Tuesday, pending $700,000 bail.
