ORLANDO, Fla. — An Orlando woman said she was badly beaten by the same man accused of grabbing and raping a woman in Thornton Park last month.
The woman, who asked not to be identified, said she was heading home from Publix one September evening when James Calixte pushed her between two cars and started beating her.
"That's when he started hammering away on my head," she said.

Calixte was charged with battery in that case.
The day after he bonded out of jail on those charges, on Oct. 26, police said Calixte is accused of grabbing and raping a woman outside her home on Jefferson Street in Thornton Park.
On Tuesday, Calixte was captured by U.S. marshals in West Palm Beach and charged with sexual battery.
"I'm hoping now, this guy is going to get what he deserves," the woman said.
She said she is glad Calixte is back behind bars and hopes he stays there.
"I was born and raised here. I'm a native and I mean I'm scared to death. I work downtown. I live here. And this guy has taken just everything from me. Everything," she said.
Calixte's latest arrest came one day after the arrest of another man accused of another unrelated attack in Downtown Orlando.
