(KSL News) West Jordan police have nabbed a man suspected of rape. They arrested 28-year-old Nicholas Corey McFarland last week after at least four women identified him as the man who raped them.

Police say the rapes took place between June 1 and Oct. 19 last year in a room he was renting from a friend. The women knew McFarland's landlord, and while they were visiting McFarland would lure them into his bedroom under false pretenses.

He faces three first-degree felony charges of rape and one second-degree felony charge of attempted forcible rape. He's being held on $400,000 bail in the Salt Lake County Jail.
