Logan man arrested for sex assault

Tylan Hardman, 24, arrested Thursday, March 19, 2015, charged with an initial offense of object rape, a first-degree felony.

LOGAN — A 24-year-old Logan man was arrested Thursday afternoon, accused of sexually assaulting a teenager three-to-four years ago.

Logan City Police Capt. Curtis Hooley said Tylan Hardman was arrested and charged with an initial offense of object rape, a first-degree felony. He was booked into the Cache County Jail and later released after posting $20,000 bail.

Hooley said officers began investigating the case after a woman reported being assaulted by Hardman when she was 17-years-old. She claimed to have known him at the time and said the assault took place while he was visiting in her home.

The investigation is continuing and formal charges are expected to be filed in the next week.
