Juan Nunley Jr was arrested in El Paso, Texas, on 7 December as a fugitive from Arizona and booked into the county jail under the alias Donasti Davonsiea.

Authorities said the attack happened at a home near Glenn Street and Mountain Avenue on Saturday 8 October.

The realtor was showing a house to a prospective buyer when Davonsiea assaulted her with a weapon and tried to physically restrain her.

She was able to escape and called 911. Her injuries from the attack led to a miscarriage three days later, KOLD News 13 reports.

Detectives were able to identify the suspect as Davonsiea and obtained a warrant for his arrest for manslaughter, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, and attempted armed kidnapping.
