Man Charged With Second Sexual Assault In Fairfax County: Police

FALLS CHURCH, VA — Fairfax County police charged a Woodbridge man with a sexual assault at a Falls Church area hotel on Aug. 23, the police department announced Wednesday.

The man, identified as 38-year-old Patrick Michael Chaloupka, was already in the Fairfax County jail on charges in connection with a sexual assault at a hotel in the Vienna area.

Fairfax County police officers responded to the Falls Church area hotel on Aug. 26 in the 6100 block of Arlington Boulevard for the report of an assault that occurred three days earlier. The victim reported that she met a man through an online app and arranged to meet him at the location.

When Chaloupka arrived in the room around 3 a.m., he threatened the woman with a knife and assaulted her, the police said. The woman was able to defend herself, and Chaloupka left the hotel.

Through the physical evidence recovered at the scene and similarities with the other assault, detectives also charged Chaloupka with abduction with intent to defile and forcible sodomy. Chaloupka remains held at the Fairfax County jail without bond.

On Sept. 3, Fairfax County police announced that they had arrested Chaloupka at his home in Woodbridge and charged him for a July 21 sexual assault at a hotel in the Vienna area.

The woman reported an unknown man entered her hotel room, showed a knife and sexually assaulted her. The woman was treated for non-life-threatening injuries.

The police department said it believes Chaloupka may be responsible for other similar crimes in the area and would like anyone who may have had contact with him to call the Major Crimes Bureau at 703-246-7800, option 3.
