An 18-year-old man from Waban, Mass., was arrested by Boston College Police and charged with one count of domestic assault and battery, two counts of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, and one count of breaking and entering with the intent to commit a felony.

Saturday night, Evan Hoffman forced his way into his ex-girlfriend's room in Fenwick Hall and subsequently assaulted and battered her.

Hoffman fled campus and was spotted by the BCPD at the intersection of Tudor Road and Hammond Street in his vehicle approximately 30 minutes after the attack was reported. After informing Newton Police that they found Hoffman, the BCPD placed him under arrest.

The Middlesex district attorney's office will prosecute Hoffman at Newton District Court.
