COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

A man from St. Charles, Missouri, accused of sexually abusing two women at a Columbia party in November was booked into the Boone County Jail on Tuesday night.

Hayk Darbinyan, 20, was charged with first-degree sodomy, first-degree sexual abuse and misdemeanor third-degree kidnapping. He is being held at the jail without bond. A hearing was scheduled for Wednesday afternoon.

Two probable cause statements were filed in the case that described a party occurring the night of Nov. 1 and into Nov. 2 at Grayson Cottages. Darbinyan is accused of abusing two women at the party. He allegedly acted “aggressive” while trying to sodomize both women, but successfully did so with one, court documents allege.

Police noted in one of the statements that a photo was taken at the party that allegedly showed Darbinyan with his hand between one of the women’s legs. Multiple witnesses spoke with police.
