Teen Arrested In Sexual Assault Of Framingham Girl

FRAMINGHAM (CBS) – A 19-year-old man has been arrested for the kidnapping and sexual assault of a 15-year-old girl last week in Framingham.

Police say Nathan Williams was arrested after investigators used victim and witness statements as well as DNA evidence.

On Wednesday, April 3, the victim told police that she got off her school bus and began walking home on Gorman Road, when a man armed with a knife forced her into the woods and attacked her.

Framingham and State Police spent hours searching the woods near Gorman Road. K9 units and a helicopter were brought in and detectives went door-to-door in the neighborhood, but the attacker was not found.

Williams was arrested at Reardon Park in Framingham Monday night. He will be arraigned on Tuesday.
