A Brighton man accused of assaulting women on an MBTA bus is also wanted for 11 other sexual assault cases, according to Transit Police.
Atchely Exavier, 28, was arrested Thursday and charged with two counts of indecent assault and battery on a bus that was at Brighton and Park Station.
“During the arrest [and] booking process it was discovered this male has 11 pending cases for sexual assaults,” Transit Police said on X.

Exavier was due to be arraigned Friday in Boston Municipal Court on a count of indecent assault and battery on a person 14 or older for Thursday’s incident. He is also set to be arraigned on the same charge in Brighton court for a similar assault that allegedly took place on Tuesday, according to the Universal Hub report.
Exavier is reportedly suspected in a third sexual assault, but the victim in that incident declined to press charges.
