Man Charged With Sexual Battery After Forcefully Kissing Woman On River Trails

In this story, we are protecting the woman's identity and calling her Sarah. 

A Tulsa woman says she was in shock after a total stranger forcefully kissed her while she was walking on the River Trails. 

She says when this happened, she was so caught off guard, she froze.

Sarah says she walks her dog on the Riverside Trails all the time, but one experience left her in shock.  

"Until I knew I got to a place where there were other people around, it was just 'keep on walking, just keep moving forward' and you'll be okay," she said. 

Sarah was walking on the trails when David Biggers came up to her with his dog.

He started talking to Sarah, but when the conversation got personal, she felt uncomfortable and started to walk away. 

That's when she said he grabbed her from behind, on the back of the head and pulled her in, and started kissing her hard. 

"Thinking back on it, you have so many thoughts of I wish I would have done that I wish I would have done this, but it was fight, flight, or freeze and I froze in that moment," she said. 

She says if it wasn't for her dog attacking his dog and lunging at him, he may not have let go as soon as he did. 

 Sarah says she was afraid to run away or call out for help because she didn't know if Biggers had a weapon.

"Once I got away, I immediately called the police because I realized this is not okay, that's not normal, no one should do that, or go through that," she said. 

She says this has now taught her to be more aware of her surroundings, and she has started taking self-defense classes at the Tulsa Police Department.

Sarah says she wants others who go through something like this to know that they can get through it.

"I'd like to know that I'm stronger than what happened, and to continue on with my life, knowing I did absolutely nothing wrong and it was not my fault what happened."

We did call David Biggers attorney but have not heard back. Biggers has been charged with one count of sexual battery.
