Police arrested an Uber driver accused of breaking into a woman's home and sexually assaulting her after giving her a ride. 

The 27-year-old victim was out eating at a restaurant in Athens one night in December when 49-year-old John Kamens picked her up in an Uber and took her to her home, according to officers. Police say he then doubled back and broke into the woman’s home.

Police were able to track him down with the help of the victim and the ride-share company.
