Scott J. Hedrick-Dwyer, 23, was arrested and booked into the Monroe County Jail. Charges against him include confinement, a Class C felony and battery a Class A misdemeanor.
Bloomington police detectives took him into custody in Owen County when he showed up by mistake at a court appearance that was scheduled for another date.

Investigators released a sketch of the attacker and received tips about his possible identity.
