Rory Puntasecca, 38, was arrested by Carlstadt police on Monday, Bergen County Prosecutor Mark Musella said.

The alleged victim “reported the assault to a family member and was taken to Hackensack University Medical Center,” Musella said Tuesday.

A hospital representative then alerted members of his Special Victim’s Unit – who, in turn, notified borough police, the prosecutor said.

Puntasecca remained held Tuesday in the Bergen County Jail pending a first appearance in Central Judicial Processing Court on charges of sex assault through force or coercion and criminal sexual contact.
