Virginia man arrested for sexually assaulting woman he met the day prior in his car

He is being held without bond while awaiting trial.

WOODBRIDGE, Va. — A Woodbridge man has been arrested in connection to a sexual assault that occurred in November of last year. Farhad Mansoori is charged with abduction and sexual battery for his alleged involvement in the assault.

According to investigators, on Nov. 11, 2023, a woman was riding in Mansoori's car after meeting her the day prior. At one point during the car ride, Mansoori drove to the 13000 block of Touchstone Circle in Woodbridge where police say he sexually assaulted her. He then dropped the victim off at another location following the assault.

After an investigation helped reveal Mansoori as the suspect in this assault, he was subsequently arrested nearly five months later on March 3.

He is being held without bond.
