An FBI agent who was acquitted of attempted murder after shooting a man on a train nearly four years ago was arrested in Maryland on Monday on charges stemming from allegations that he sexually assaulted two women.

Special Agent Eduardo Valdivia, 40, was arrested by the Montgomery County Department of Police, and the Special Victims Investigations Division is urging any additional victims to come forward. Police will hold a news conference on Tuesday to “encourage them to come forward,” the department said in a statement.

Valdivia has been suspended by the FBI pending the conclusion of the Montgomery County police investigation, a spokesperson for the FBI said in a statement.

“The FBI takes allegations of criminal violations and misconduct very seriously,” the statement said. “Because this is an ongoing investigation, the FBI cannot comment further.”

JURY FINDS FBI AGENT NOT GUILTY OF 2020 METRO SHOOTING IN MARYLAND

Valdivia was previously charged with attempted second-degree murder and other charges in connection with a 2020 off-duty shooting aboard a Metro Red Line train near Bethesda, Maryland, but was acquitted two years later.

He had allegedly engaged in a verbal exchange with a man who approached him asking for money. When Valdivia declined to give him any money, the man allegedly muttered expletives before turning away.

Then, Valdivia shot the man from a distance of roughly two to three feet after repeatedly telling the man to back up, county prosecutor Robert Hill said in court. The wounded man had part or all of his spleen, colon and pancreas removed during surgery following the shooting, Hill said.

The FBI agent was later charged with attempted second-degree murder, first-degree assault, firearm use in a violent crime and reckless endangerment.

Valdivia turned himself in after he was indicted in 2021, but a jury found him not guilty of all charges last December.

Now, Valdivia faces new felony and misdemeanor charges, including two counts of second-degree rape, over alleged incidents in May and September of this year, according to court records.

Attorney Robert Bonsib, who represented Valdivia in the train shooting case, confirmed that the FBI agent was arrested Monday on sexual assault accusations.

“We don’t accept at first blush any of the allegations until all of the evidence is in,” Bonsib told The Associated Press.

Bonsib said his client was ordered held in custody after his initial court appearance on Monday. Valdivia is slated to return to court Tuesday for a bond hearing before a judge, Bonsib said.

Valdivia joined the FBI in 2011 before he was promoted to supervisory special agent at the FBI headquarters in 2019, according to Bonsib. Valdivia had been working at the FBI since his acquittal.

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — The Arkansas Razorbacks get one last chance to run short-handed and still have a legitimate chance to hold up before the schedule gets too tough to continue playing with such a small line-up because of injuries.

The biggest storyline tonight will be whether Trevon Brazile comes back from injury. It was reported last week that he wants to get minutes in before the Illinois game on Thanksgiving.

That may not be entirely up to him as Calipari might think its in the team’s best interest to keep him rested and safe from injury for a few more days to make sure he at least makes it to Kansas City fully upright. Speaking of the Illini, Illinois beat Maryland Eastern Shore by 37 last weekend.

The Hawks will leave Fayetteville to face the Hogs’ last opponent, Little Rock, on Wednesday in a quick sweep through the state.

Starting line-up

1ST HALF

Nothing unique about the starting line-up tonight. Light crowd as expected. Students have had to go home for Thanksgiving and while children are out of school in a lot of places, parents still have to work. Games like this might be a good opportunity to honor teachers by giving unused tickets to fill up the stands.

Boogie Fland gets things going right away with a short jumper. Then the Hogs get the ball inside to Ivisic for an easy lay-up and that’s going to be unlimited points tonight if Arkansas wants to do that because the size difference is just too much. Hogs up 4-0.

Johnell Davis knocks down a three from the corner and that’s something Arkansas has really needed. Davis hasn’t been his usual self. If he starts shooting like he did at FAU, the Hogs are going to win a lot of games. For the second game in a row, the Razorbacks are out to a 7-0 lead.

Arkansas finally goes to Thiero following a turnover and his move through the lane is just unfair. The size and speed is unmatched tonight. He’s such a strong player. The Hawks break the scoreless drought with a three, but Ivisic runs down the floor and knocks down back-to-back threes just to make sure Maryland Eastern Shore knows it’s going to be a long night. Hogs up 15-3 as the games comes to a break with 15 minutes left in the half.

And there’s an official Trevon Brazile sighting as he walks out onto the floor for the first time in a while. Ivisic currently leads all scorers with eight points as the Hogs run the lead out to 21-8 with just under 12 minutes left in the half.

Tremendous ball movement by Arkansas, pass after pass, leads to a miss, but the Hogs get the rebound that swings out to Davis in that same corner again and he barely moves the net knocking down another three. This could be the big confidence builder he needs heading into that Illinois game. If Davis breaks 20 tonight, expect that line to move by Thanksgiving Day.

A 7-year-old boy died after he fell from the window of a moving car and was hit by an oncoming car in Anne Arundel County, Maryland, on Sunday night, authorities say. The driver who hit the boy left the scene and is being sought by police.

The child died in Millersville, on I-97 north of Route 32, Maryland State Police said Monday morning. His name was not released.

State troopers and medics rushed to the area shortly before 7:30 p.m. Sunday and pronounced the boy dead on the scene.

According to an initial investigation, the boy was a rear passenger in a 2011 Mazda 3 headed north. He opened a window, fell out and landed on the road, police said in a statement.

The child was then hit by a car described as a 2016 to 2019 Honda Civic.

That driver left the scene and is now sought by police. The Civic may have damage to the front left wheel well, police said.
