Monterey Park man accused of sexually assaulting, exposing self to woman

MONTEREY PARK — Police jailed a 29-year-old man early Saturday after he fondled a woman and exposed himself to her inside a Garvey Avenue business, officials said.
Gilardo Carvente of Monterey Park was arrested on suspicion of sexual battery following the incident, which took place about 1 a.m. at a strip mall in the 200 block of South Garfield Avenue, according to Monterey Park police Lt. Eric Kim and Los Angeles County booking records.
Carvente is accused of appraching the woman from behind and grabbing her buttocks, the lieutenant said. “When the victim turned around, the suspect exposed his genitals.”
The woman called police, who quickly found Carvente in the area and arrested him, Kim said.
He was being held in lieu of $25,000 bail pending his scheduled arraignment Wednesday in Alhambra Superior Court.
