OKLAHOMA CITY -- An Oklahoma City woman is attacked and raped at a local church. Luckily, within just a few hours, police were able to make an arrest. The accused rapist is 30-year-old Antwine Walker. The crime took place at Britton Baptist Church near Britton and Western. The suspect occasionally worked at the church doing odd jobs. Police say that made it easy for employees to ID him.
The alleged rape victim told police she was ambushed and assaulted just seconds after arriving for work early Tuesday.
"The suspect actually followed her to the back of the building, threw some kind of rope around her neck and proceeded to choke her and rape and sodomize her in the building," said Sgt. Jennifer Wardlow.
Walker remains behind bars at the county jail.
Walker has a lengthy criminal record, including convictions for burglary and violating a victim's protective order.
The church pastor says he knew of Walker's criminal past but wanted to give him a chance to go straight.
No one at the church wanted to go on camera to talk about the crime.
