Female students have pants yanked down on Ohio campus, and a man is going to jail

A man in Ohio is going to jail after police say he pulled down the pants of two female students in separate incidents last year.

On Sept. 23, police say Christopher Eugene Clark, 21, walked up behind a female student and pulled down her pants at a dorm dining hall complex at Kent State University, the Columbus Dispatch reported.

Just over a week later, it happened again, this time to a female student walking on a fitness track outside the university health center, WOIO reported. Police say the student fell after Clark pulled down her pants and suffered minor injuries, according to the outlet.

Clark, who is not a student at Kent State, was arrested and pleaded guilty to two felony counts of aggravated assault and one misdemeanor count of obstructing official business, WKBN reported.

On Tuesday, Clark was sentenced to one year in jail and a $300 fine, according to the Dispatch. He was also barred from returning to the Kent State campus and will undergo a mental health evaluation, WKBN reported.
