SACRAMENTO, California — A Sacramento man convicted of false imprisonment and sexual battery was sentenced to 2.5 years in prison.
The Sacramento County District Attorney's office says the assault happened at a movie theater in October. Two women were waiting for a movie when Marvin Bell, who they did not know, started talking to them.
He then kissed one of the women without her consent and she left to go to the bathroom. The DA's office says Bell followed her, entered the stall, locked the door and started demanding sex while touching her.
She escaped and asked the theater staff for help but Bell was already at another business where he also grabbed a female employee. He was caught nearby.
The DA's office says DNA evidence proved he sexually assaulted the first woman. He was sentenced Friday, Aug. 18.
