A 38-year-old woman was sexually assaulted in downtown Roanoke Monday while waiting to cross a street, police said Tuesday.

An officer found a man matching the victim's description in the bus terminal a few minutes later. Jimmy Wayne Brown, 28, gave his address as City Rescue Mission and was charged with misdemeanor sexual battery.
