At 1:53 am, Duchesne County Deputies responded to the Wells Club located at 47 East Main Street on the report of a sexual assault.
The subject was at the bar with two other associates, where they came into contact with the victim. Statements from the bartender stated he observed the male groping and grabbing the female.
It was found that the female had walked outside the building onto the back patio and sat in a chair in the back of the business. The witness then stated he came outside and observed the same male subject standing in front of the same female, who was very close to her.
The witness stated he overheard the victim say, "I'm an old woman, and you shouldn't be doing this to me."
This prompted the witness to interject and tell the male subject to leave. The subject was observed backing up with his hands around his belt line area and then leaving. The victim then made the statement to the witness that the subject had hurt her and called the police.
The victim stated while outside, the male continued to grope and grab at her and that it was unwanted.
The male subject was reported to have left on foot westbound. He was later located at the Winterton Suites, 75 South 100 West.
When Officers arrived, he was found to be passed out on the sidewalk in front of the hotel rooms. Initial observation showed that he had shallow breathing and was not responding to attempts to wake him up.
After some time and performing sternum rubs, the male subject came to but was found to be extremely intoxicated. The subject smelled strongly of alcohol, and his words were very slurred, and his movements were slow.
The male was identified as 38-year-old Leroy Martinez Gonzales.
Leroy had a very hard time following directions and didn't understand what was going on. He did admit to being at the Wells club with the female and the other two individuals but denied the allegation.
Due to Leroy's extreme intoxication of being a danger to himself and others to the point where he was sleeping on the sidewalk without being able to acknowledge where he was, he was arrested on charges of intoxication and Sexual Battery. Sexual battery applied as he touched the breast, buttocks, anus, or genitals, which caused her affront or alarm.
Leroy was transported to the Duchesne County Jail.
