Milciades Mendoza Alcantara



DUNCAN, S.C. -- A 19-year-old man has been charged in connection with a sexual assault and two robberies that happened on Tuesday night.

Spartanburg County Sheriff's Maj. Dan Johnson said Milciades Mendoza Alcantara, of Duncan, is charged with robbing a Subway restaurant on Highway 101.

Johnson said Alcantara is also charged with robbing a tanning salon on East Main Street in Duncan and sexually assaulting and kidnapping a 19-year-old employee.

Investigators said after the employee gave Alcantara the cash, she was forced into a back room where she was raped.

Deputies said that Alcantara tried to use a mop to remove evidence of the assault. The mop and fluid samples from the floor were later taken into evidence by investigators.

At about 10:30 p.m. Tuesday, a Duncan police officer stopped a burgundy Toyota on Highway 290. Alcantara was arrested for driving under suspension.

The officer noticed a star tattoo on Alcantara's neck that the rape victim had described. Alcantara was driving a vehicle that matched the description of the one police were looking for.

Johnson said that investigators later went to Alcantara's house and found a ski mask and knife that witnesses said were used in both robberies and the sexual assault.

Alcantara is being held in the Spartanburg County Detention Center.

He is charged with having a weapon during a violent crime, kidnapping, first-degree criminal sexual conduct and two counts of armed robbery

My best wishes to the victim...My guess is the robber was disappointed with the money in the till and decided to hit on the cute girl behind the counter.
My personal feeling to rape is it should be a capital crime.

on a lighter note...
Glad that robber didn't come to our salon. He would have gotten about $7.50 and my ass would be hurting...


sorry, I couldn't resist. please don't hate me..

I agree. He should get a death sentence but not by lethal injection. Anyone who has had to put down a pet knows that lethal injection is too humane an end for a rapist, murderer or OJ.

My heart goes out to this poor young girl. This will be something that she will carry for the rest of her life. He should be put in jail and never let out. He will never get the what he really deserves I can assure you. Sad really sad.

Hopefully Mr. Alcantara, the wonderful human being that he is, will be locked away for a very, very, very long time!

I am glad to hear that the officer was able to identify the tattoo and put 2 and 2 together.
