GREEN BAY (NBC 26) — The suspect accused of attacking a woman on the East River Trail in De Pere entered a plea of not guilty Thursday.

17-year-old Miles Cruz is facing multiple criminal charges, including attempted homicide, sexual assault, and kidnapping.

Cruz is accused of attacking and sexually assaulting a woman in October on the East River Trail while she was walking with her baby.

A criminal complaint says that DNA evidence connects Cruz to the crime. The complaint also said Cruz denied ever touching or assaulting anyone on the trail.
