Jordan Grady, 36, was arrested just before midnight on Wednesday and is held on charges including six counts of sexual assault, battery with a deadly weapon, and sexually motivated coercion with a deadly weapon.

"Rest assured that UNLV leadership, UPD, LVMPD and all our law enforcement partners are committed to support the victim through this terrible incident and will continue to work collaboratively to protect and safeguard the communities we serve.”
On behalf of UNLV Interim President Chris Heavey and I, we would like to thank the men and women of the LVMPD who played a critical role in helping us bring this case to a timely and safe conclusion.”
