A man from Laveen assaulted a woman in a vacant field back in April, police say. 

Court records show that on April 28 just around 10 p.m. a man lured a woman to a field near 51st Avenue and Baseline Road where he allegedly beat, strangled and sexually assaulted the woman. 

Police say that the suspect, 22-year-old Andrew Bonifacio Alday, lured the woman to a vacant field under "false pretenses."

He reportedly held the woman to the ground and sexually assaulted her. He also, police say, pistol whipped her and strangled her while threatening to end the woman's life. 

Alday,who lives about a mile from where the assault took place, was arrested and charged with aggravated assault, sexual assault and kidnapping.
