 GADSDEN CO., Fla. (WTXL) --   A Tallahassee man arrested on sexual assault charges last month has pleaded not guilty.

Michael Hayes was arrested in February on sexual assault and carjacking charges in Gadsden County.

Deputies say a 67-year-old female taxi driver showed up to the hospital badly injured, saying she was robbed and sexually assaulted by Hayes in Havana.

According to authorities, Hayes did later confess to the assault in an interview with investigators.
