A woman is facing charges after being accused of sexually assaulting a cable repairman.

Mildred Newsome, 47 from Fayetteville in North Carolina, was arrested after forcing the unnamed repairman into letting her perform oral sex on him, the New York Post reports.

Sergeant Shawn Strepay told the paper: "The cable guy was there to work on her box and while waiting for it to reset as he was sitting on a couch, she came over, grabbed his hand and forcefully placed his hand on her own breast."

Strepay went on to say the repairman, reported to be in his 30s, attempted to resist her 'unwanted sexual advances', but she allegedly ignored him and performed oral sex on him.

According to her arrest warrant, seen by the Charlotte Observer, she put his hand on her breast 'by force' for the purpose of 'sexual arousal and sexual gratification'.

Fayetteville Police sergeant Darwyn Hudson told ABC: "That's the point you need to remove yourself from the situation and partner up with someone.

"Let someone know that this situation has gotten to a place where it's out of your hands. Out of your control."

The man told cops she had threatened to 'turn the story on him' if he reported the matter to the police - saying she would say it was him who had forced her.

However, shortly after leaving the property he went to police and told them what had happened.

Newsome is now facing two counts of second-degree forcible sex offence and one misdemeanor count of sexual battery - she has been released on bail, according to police.
