Miami Twp. police were called around 7:20 a.m. Sept. 16, 2022, to a report of a forcible rape at the the Miamisburg by the Mall apartments off Lyons Road.
A woman told officers she was asleep in an upstairs bedroom “when she was awoken (sic) to a man pulling down her pants. The man was standing next to the bed wearing a mask and brandishing a handgun,” an affidavit filed in Miamisburg Municipal Court stated.
The man threatened to kill the woman before sexually assaulting her, according to the document.
The man left and entered the apartment using a rear sliding glass door. It was not clear whether the door was locked, but there was no sign of forced entry, the affidavit stated.
The woman was taken to a local hospital for a sexual assault examination, which collected genetic material from her assailant.
The Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation determined that DNA from the woman’s exam matched Spells, according to the affidavit.
During an interview with detectives, Spells denied the assault, court documents stated.
He was booked Thursday afternoon into the Montgomery County Jail. He is next scheduled to appear in court Jan. 17.
