Crime in Frankford

by Gil

From the Inquirer today:

A 16-year-old girl told police that she was repeatedly raped Thursday after being abducted on her way to school, police said yesterday.

Police last night said they were questioning a suspect, a man in his 30s, and expected to charge him overnight.

The girl, a sophomore at Simon Gratz High School, was walking through a park area in the 1300 block of Orthodox Street on her way to catch the Market-Frankford El around 7 a.m. when she allegedly was confronted by a man with a gun, said Capt. John Darby, commander of the Special Victims Unit.
