A cleaning-products salesman has been accused of sexually assaulting a teenager at a Lorton home where he was trying to sell products.
Tommy L. Harmon, 26, of Greensboro, N.C., was charged Monday with taking indecent liberties with a child.
Harmon, a door-to-door salesman with the Pumppers Trust-Mrs. Clean Pump-it-Off Co., allegedly asked to use the bathroom at a home, then sexually assaulted a 14-year-old girl at the residence.
The teenager was home alone, Fairfax County police said.
Police said area residents told authorities about a group of solicitors who were in the neighborhood selling carpet cleaning supplies. Late Monday night, police stopped a van that fit the neighbors’ description and Harmon was one of the occupants.
The company is based in South Carolina.
