ORLANDO, Fla. – Authorities have detained a 26-year-old man this Tuesday in connection with an attack on a 90-year-old woman in her HarborChase apartment located in Dr. Phillips, as reported by the Orange County Sheriff’s Office.

Deriko Montreze Hill faces charges that include burglary of a dwelling with assault or battery, attempted sexual battery, and battery on an individual aged 65 or older.

According to sheriff’s officials, deputies responded late Tuesday to the Brookdale Senior Living facility on 8001 Pin Oak Drive regarding a suspicious person resembling the description of the suspect involved in the April 29 incident at HarborChase.

Deputies established a perimeter at Brookdale and just prior to searching the interior of the facility, the suspicious person exited a rear door and took off running, officials said.

The man, identified as Hill, was secured after a brief chase, deputies said.

According to OCSO, Hill confessed to his involvement in both cases.

“No senior should ever be attacked in their home or apartment,“ the sheriff’s office said in a statement. ”Detectives from both our agencies have worked vigilantly to find this suspect and ensure that he can’t hurt any other seniors in our community.”

In the HarborChase attack, a friend of the victim said the attacker knocked the woman down and tried to smother her, but she was not seriously injured.
