According to a story in the Examiner today, an employee of the high-end Clift Hotel, home of Asia de Cuba and the Redwood Room, snuck into a woman’s room “to sexually assault her.” Now, that wording leaves it uncertain as to whether 30-year-old housekeeping employee and suspect Christian Rojas actually carried out the assault, but the point remains: Gross and scary.
The hotel identified Rojas’ key card using its electronic card tracking system, according to the Ex. “Rojas was arrested shortly after the investigation on sexual battery and burglary charges,” the article states.
While the incident appears to be isolated and unconnected to the restaurant, and the hotel is cooperating with the police investigation, the whole nasty thing reminds one that there are creeps out there, and it is best to be careful. Throw that deadbolt, don’t hang your purse over the back of your chair, and for God’s sake be polite to your waiter.
