Police arrest N.H. woman, 27, accused of repeatedly sexually assaulting 14-year-old boy

Officials said tips regarding the woman came pouring in after police posted about her on Facebook.

Police in Manchester, New Hampshire, arrested a 27-year-old woman Saturday who was wanted for allegedly sexually assaulting a 14-year-old boy multiple times.

The woman, 27, allegedly assaulted the boy between September and October. A Nov. 26 post from police also accused her of sending the boy nude photos of herself.

Police have been searching for her since mid-October, according to officials.

After the Manchester Police Department posted about the woman on its Facebook page, tips came pouring in. One of the tips led police to arrest her on Saturday morning, officials said.

She was reportedly arrested without incident and is facing five counts of felonious sexual assault.
