Florida Reporter Arrested and Charged With Sexual Battery

In Gainesville, Florida, the local ABC affiliate, WCJB-TV20, is being rocked by a scandal caused by a 23-year-old reporter named Spencer Allen. Allen was arrested and charged with sexual battery this week, according to the Gainesville Sun.

The paper reports that he was socializing at someone’s residence on Tuesday night when he allegedly locked a woman in a bedroom, forced her into oral sex and sexual intercourse, grabbed her by the neck, held her face down, and bit her genital area, all while she said “no.”

She was able to get away, according to the paper, and a witness found her crying and asking for her clothes back.
