Raleigh, N.C. — A local man pleaded guilty Monday to assaulting a female in connection with an April attack on a jogger, authorities said.

Christopher Holland, 24, was given credit for the 70 days he has spent in jail and was placed on probation for four years, authorities said.

A woman told police a man traveling in a red or burgundy vehicle grabbed her while she was jogging on Falls River Road and Hopeton Avenue on April 24. She was able to get away safely.
