Being booked does not mean he has been formally charged. The Napa County District Attorney’s Office will file any charges in the case, Wofford said.
A spokesman for the district attorney's office said Thursday the office does not yet have the case, but will review it once it is received.
It was not immediately clear if Chigvintsev had an attorney who could speak on his behalf.

Details about the victim, any relationship, and where the arrest took place were not being released because of concerns about the victims' privacy, Wofford said.
