<div class="content"><span style="padding-left: 50px;">(COLUMBIA, MO)</span> - <p style="display:inline;">Columbia Police officers arrested Christopher Latrell Moore, 35, of Columbia tonight in reference to a sexual assault with a gun that occurred early this morning on Old 63 North.</p>
<p>At 3:52 a.m., officers responded to the 200 block of Old 63 North for a sexual assault with a gun. The investigation revealed the male suspect forced entry into a home where the female victim, 22, was present. The suspect was armed with a firearm and forced the victim to perform sexual acts.
