SEATTLE (AP) — A man accused of attacking three women joggers in West Seattle’s Lincoln park pleaded not guilty Wednesday to charges of indecent liberties and attempted indecent liberties.

KOMO reports 46-year-old Duane E. Starkenburg remains free on $175,000 bail until his next appearance in King County Superior Court, but the judge ordered him to stay out of parks.

Seattle police say Starkenburg grabbed the women from behind in attacks in August, December and January and pretended to be falling. Each time the women broke away.
