“Are You the One?” alum Connor Smith is facing criminal charges including rape and other serious allegations, Page Six can confirm.
A spokesperson for the Cook County Sheriff’s Office told us Tuesday the 31-year-old reality star was arrested Dec. 16 in Oak Lawn, Ill., on a warrant from Lake County, Ind.
The warrant was issued due to allegations of rape, criminal confinement, and sexual battery. The specific details of the accusations were not disclosed and reps at the Lake County Indiana State Attorney’s Office could not immediately be reached.
However, TMZ obtained documents that purport to show the alleged crime began when a 16-year-old girl claims she provided someone, who was selling a cat, her address via Snapchat.
She then alleged a man “ripped open her bedroom window screen, yanked her out of the room, threw her into his truck and drove to a motel while sexually assaulting her.”
Smith did not find love on MTV’s dating show, “Are You the One?”MTVHowever, the unidentified teen’s story changed in later interviews with police, according to TMZ. She subsequently admitted to having met her alleged attacker on a dating app and voluntarily snuck out to meet him.
The young woman said once she was inside the man’s truck, he allegedly forced her to perform oral sex while driving to the motel, “slapping and choking her multiple times, urinating on her in the motel room and forcing oral sex again.”
She claims the man returned her home and said he would be back the next day, but family members who were on her front lawn reportedly chased him away.
According to TMZ, police arrested Smith because his vehicle matched the description of what eyewitnesses saw.
A rep for the Cook County Sheriff’s Office told Page Six the former MTV star was booked into Cook County Jail on Dec. 17, where he remains in custody with no bond.
He or his attorney could not immediately be reached for comment. His Instagram has also been deactivated.
Smith appeared on Season 3 of “Are You the One?,” a show where a group of single contestants competed to find their perfect match, in 2015.
MTV did not immediately return Page Six’s request for comment.
