COTTAGE GROVE (AP) - A man featured on "America's Most Wanted'' for allegedly breaking into the home of a former Massachusetts school teacher and attacking her has been arrested after he was spotted at an Oregon grocery store.
The Oregon State Police say 36-year-old Michael Bresnahan was arrested Monday night after he tried to outrun police along a railroad track in Cottage Grove.
Bresnahan is accused of breaking into the home of a 61-year-old woman in Winchendon, Mass., and sexually assaulting her last August.
Viewers of the popular television show spotted Bresnahan allegedly stealing beer at a grocery store. Security camera footage confirmed it was the man U.S. marshals and the Massachusetts State Police had been tracking for nearly a year.
