A suspect who allegedly sexually abused a sleeping 71-year-old woman in her own home and ran off with her pajama pants in Brooklyn was arrested Thursday, cops said.
Servin Maradiaga, 43, was charged with rape, burglary, aggravated sexual abuse and criminal obstruction of breathing in the pervy Aug. 30 home invasion, authorities said.
The senior was sleeping inside her Cypress Hills home at Berriman Street and Liberty Avenue around 2:15 a.m. when the stranger made his way inside through a kitchen window, police said.
The creep then choked the woman, touched her private area and took off — while still holding her pajama pants, cops said.
The NYPD caught up to him around 9 a.m. Thursday at the ibis Styles New York LaGuardia Airport hotel, which is listed as his address, police said.
At the time of that arrest, Maradiaga was also connected to another sexual offense – for allegedly groping the buttocks of a 41-year-old woman, an acquaintance, inside a social club on Arlington Avenue near Highland Place in Cypress Hills back on Nov. 29, 2024, authorities said.
He was charged with forcible touching and sexual abuse in that case, cops said.
His arraignment in both cases was pending Friday afternoon.
Maradiaga was most recently arrested in July on a local law violation for lying outstretched on the subway in Brooklyn, cops said.
He has another prior arrest from 2013 for forcible touching in Manhattan, authorities said.
