Staten Island Homeowner Arrested For Allegedly Sexually Assaulting FEMA Inspector

A man in Staten Island has been arrested after allegedly sexually assaulting a female FEMA inspector who came to survey his house to see how it fared after Hurricane Sandy. Robert Langshultz allegedly “pounced” on the woman right after she knocked on his door Monday afternoon.

Langshultz, has been charged with sexual abuse and forcible touching, according to The New York Post.

He allegedly threw her against a wall, tried to kiss her and grabbed her breasts and buttocks. The woman broke free and later informed police, the sources said.

The Staten Island Special Victims Unit picked up Langshultz, who is a contractor, early yesterday morning.

A corporate spokeswoman for PB Disasters, the government-contracting firm that the inspector worked for, was “unaware” of the firm’s policies regarding individual inspectors going to people’s homes unaccompanied. FEMA did not provide a statement.
