A man from Arizona found himself in the custody of California authorities after being accused of trying to murder his girlfriend last year by strangling her with bed sheets.
Authorities arrested Jason Marchesano, aged 46, at the Legoland theme park in Carlsbad on Monday.
This arrest took place more than six months after the alleged incident. According to the Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office, Marchesano is accused of tying up his girlfriend using bed sheets inside a trailer located in Paulden, Arizona.
The woman managed to escape during the October incident and subsequently reported the ordeal to the police.
“The successful arrest resulted from diligent investigation, cooperation between agencies, and a community member’s decision to come forward,” stated the Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office in a release.
