An Auburn man was arrested on charges he groped a woman's breasts against her will on a public street.

A woman who had left a city bar after 2 a.m. that morning reported that a man made a lewd remark to her and then groped her breasts. The woman did not initially know who it was who had touched her, but an investigation later identified Sweeting, police said.

Sweeting's bail was set at $1,000 cash or bond in Auburn City Court. His next court appearance is scheduled for Oct. 5.
