Teen raped after meeting man in online dating site

HOUSTON

The girl was 14 years old at the time of the assault in early May. She told police she met a man she knew as "Joel" on a dating site, and he called her cell phone and threatened and harassed her until she told him where she lives.

The girl said the man then picked her up and drove her behind a building where he pushed her into the backseat, threatened to kill her and raped her.

According to court documents, the girl told a friend, who encouraged her to tell the school counselor. A rape examination was performed at an area hospital.

Police tracked down German Francisco Orozco-Moncada through his cell phone number, and the victim identified him from a police lineup. Orozco-Moncada, 23, is charged with sexual assault of a child. Bail in the case has been set at $30,000.
