'Pizza call' to 911 saves assault victim

This weekend, our 911 center got a call from a woman ordering a pizza close to 4 a.m.

What the dispatcher quickly figured out was that the caller was really in danger.

Thanks to coordination between our 911 Communications Center and patrol deputies, we were able to track down this victim in a field in Pierson.

The suspect was on top of her and she was screaming for help when deputies arrived.

I can't say enough about the great work shown in this video and the smart thinking of this victim who figured out a way to call for help.

The defendant is Luis Diego Hernandez-Moncayo, 27, who is in this country illegally and reportedly just applied for asylum the day before this occurred.

He's now sitting in jail, charged with attempted sexual battery, battery by strangulation, and false imprisonment, with an immigration detainer from the U.S. Border Patrol.

Again, great job all!!
