A man has been charged over two attacks on women including pulling a knife on a 16-year-old girl and later raping a woman in Perth’s south.
The 47-year-old approached the teenage girl at about 7.55pm on Saturday under a shelter near the Kelmscott train station, produced a knife and forced her to walk with him, police allege.
She broke free and ran to the train station and the man ran away in the opposite direction.
Less than an hour later, police say the man raped a woman in her 20s at a home in Kelmscott.
Sex Assault Squad detectives went to the man’s Camillo home in the early hours of Sunday. He was arrested and charged with rape, deprivation of liberty, threats to injure, endanger or harm and burglary.
He will appear in Armadale Magistrates Court on Monday.
