RENSSELAER COUNTY, N.Y. -- Hoosick Falls Police have arrested a man who they say broke into his girlfriend’s home and assaulted her.

Edward Cook was arrested on Monday in the Town of Petersburg. He's accused of breaking into his girlfriend’s Hoosick Falls home back on March 24th and attacking her.

Police say the victim originally told them she was assaulted by three women, but they believe she was lying because she was scared of Cook.

Cook now faces several charges, including assault and unlawful imprisonment. Cook was sent to the Rensselaer County Jail without bail.
