Carrollton, Texas, law enforcement officials arrested an alleged serial rapist who is HIV positive and could be connected to sexual assaults in multiple states.

The Carrollton Police Department said officers responded to an area hospital on Feb. 11, where they met with a sexual assault victim who was receiving treatment.

The next day, police arrested 25-year-old Carlton Tambaoga and charged him with a single count of sexual assault.

An investigation conducted by detectives with the Special Victims Unit led to the discovery of a second victim allegedly sexually assaulted by the same suspect, and on Feb. 13, police charged Tambaoga with an additional count of sexual assault.

The investigation into the matter is ongoing, and detectives are continuing efforts to reach out to each victim as evidence emerges in the case.

Police encourage anyone who may have been sexually assaulted to seek immediate medical attention and get tested for sexually transmitted infections (STIs).

They also encourage victims to contact the local police department where the sexual assault took place.

Anyone with information about this case can contact the FBI to leave a tip at 1-800-CALL-FBI, or by visiting tips.fbi.gov.
