A Penn State student faces felony charges after allegedly breaking into a woman’s apartment and touching her while she slept.

Robert Wolfgang, 22, was arrested on Sunday after police received a call from the resident of a Beaver Avenue apartment. According to the affidavit of probable cause, the victim told police she woke up to find an unknown man “petting” her arm and “hovering” over her.

The victim reportedly told Wolfgang to leave several times, but he did not leave. Another person in the apartment also reportedly confronted Wolfgang, who provided his name “but appeared highly intoxicated and was unable to engage in conversation,” the affidavit states.

Police found Wolfgang on the steps outside the apartment when they arrived several minutes later. He was taken to the Mount Nittany Medical Center for an alcohol overdose, and reportedly admitted to officers on the way there that “the last thing he remembered was Friday,” which was his twenty-second birthday, according to court documents.

Wolfgang faces felony charges of burglary and trespassing, as well as a summary-level harassment charge. Court documents identify him as a California resident, and the Penn State directory lists him as a kinesiology student with a downtown address.
