A man is now in custody after he was recently charged with three separate sexual assaults of women in St. Paul, and police are continuing to ask any additional victims to come forward.

He met the women through dating apps or websites, according to criminal complaints.

Officers initially arrested Rakai Eugene Davis, 18, on Dec. 26 while executing a search warrant of his home in connection with the third sexual assault, which happened Dec. 9 behind a garage in the 1700 block of Clear Avenue. He lives nearby, according to a complaint filed Dec. 27.

Court records show Davis pleaded not guilty and was released from the Ramsey County jail on Jan. 27 after posting a $250,000 bond.

DNA subsequently connected him to two previous sexual assaults — on Nov. 3, in the same area along Clear Avenue and on May 27, 2023, in the 1700 block of Cottage Avenue. The Ramsey County Attorney’s Office charged him in those cases on Feb. 18 and 19, and a warrant was issued for his arrest.

At that time, police said investigators believe there may be additional victims. Police hadn’t received tips as of Thursday afternoon and requested again that anyone with information contact the department’s sex crimes unit at 651-266-5685.

St. Paul investigators had been gathering information about Davis’ whereabouts and found he was with family in St. Cloud, said Sgt. Toy Vixayvong.

Law enforcement carried out a search warrant in St. Cloud and took Davis into custody at an apartment Monday afternoon. He was turned over to St. Paul police and booked into the Ramsey County Juvenile Detention Center because he was charged as juvenile in one of the cases that happened when he was 16; he’s being kept separate from other teens in custody, Vixayvong said.

An attorney for Davis couldn’t be reached for comment Thursday.
