Antonio Felix Ramirez Rivera, 27, who has no fixed address, had been wanted for a host of charges after repeatedly terrorizing a member of his family, with the latest incident coming nearly two weeks ago.

On Tuesday, Sept. 17, the Prince William County Police Department announced that Ramirez Rivera had been tracked down and arrested.

According to the Prince William County Police Department, at around 9:20 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 5, officers responded to the 1600 block of Hylton Avenue, when a 27-year-old woman woke to Ramirez Rivera forcibly entering her home through a window.

It is alleged that Ramirez Rivera then grabbed the woman, demanding money while brandishing a knife. 

He then fled the area. No injuries were reported.

During the subsequent investigation, police say that it was determined that Ramirez Rivera was already being sought for assaulting the woman on two previous nights.

Following his arrest, Ramirez Rivera was charged with robbery, burglary, and two counts of domestic assault and battery.

His next court date was pending and bond information was unavailable on Tuesday afternoon.
