A Tennessee man was charged with multiple felonies after police claim he sexually assaulted a woman early Monday.

Lucas Watson, 28, of Goodlettsville, Tennessee, was charged with first-degree sodomy, first-degree attempted rape and third-degree domestic assault. He is being held at the Boone County Jail without bond. A court date has not been scheduled.

The probable cause statement says police were called to a Columbia residence around 1 a.m. after Watson would allegedly not leave the home. Watson was allegedly heard in the background of the call, the statement says.

He eventually left after police were called and was stopped on Scott Boulevard at Mesa Drive, the statement says. He allegedly admitted to hitting the victim “out of frustration,” the statement says.

The victim detailed a sexual assault to police where they said no multiple times. Watson allegedly denied the allegations before saying the victim told him no, the statement says.
