Sexual battery suspect takes crush on employee too far

Tulsa police say Joseph Oluwashusi is accused of sexually assaulting a hotel employee near 71st and Mingo Saturday evening.

Officers received the call around 6 p.m., at the Holiday Inn Express.

He's accused of telling the employee, "she was going to get him in trouble because he was in love with her."

He then took off for a while and the victim went back to working.

A short time later, police say the suspect returned and began flirting with the victim again.  This time, he's accused of hugging her, grabbing her, and trying to force the victim to kiss him.

Police say the victim kept saying no and he eventually let her go.  The victim then went into a office and called for help.

The suspect was arrested and taken to the Tulsa County Jail where he faces one count of sexual battery.
