Unalaska, AK – A 27-year-old man was arrested for allegedly sexually assaulting a woman in a UniSea bunkhouse Tuesday afternoon.

Omar Ali Danyerow was charged with second- and third-degree sex assault. A criminal complaint filed at Unalaska's District Court on Wednesday alleges that Danyerow attempted to have sex with his roommate's girlfriend while she was sleeping. The victim and her boyfriend had been drinking after getting off of work, and fell asleep in bed before the incident occurred. In his statement to Department of Public Safety officers, Danyerow disputed the woman's account of what happened. He said that the woman was awake and consenting at the time, but that he didn't actually have sex with her.

After the incident, the woman went to the UniSea housing office and told personnel there that she thought she had been raped. When UniSea security arrived, she was hyperventilating and incoherent, and was taken to the Iliuliuk Health Clinic for treatment, according to the police report.

Danyerow's pre-indictment hearing is scheduled for February 23 at 11 a.m. in District Court. Currently he is being held by Public Safety in lieu of $10,000 bail.
