Uniontown man charged with rape of child
Uniontown police issued an arrest warrant for an 18-year-old Uniontown man accused of raping a girl who was 11 years old at the time.
Matheno William Washington allegedly asked the girl for inappropriate photos, touched her inappropriately at a park and then talked her into having intercourse with him in October, according to court documents.
The alleged victim, who is now 12, told police she was “scared he might hurt her if she didn’t let him,” Uniontown police wrote in the affidavit of probable cause filed in his case.
She told investigators that he followed her to her house before the alleged incident. She said Washington knew her age, the affidavit said.
The girl’s mother reported the incident after her daughter told her they had sex, police said.
Washington is charged with two counts each of rape of a child, statutory sexual assault, sexual assault, corruption of minors and four counts of aggravated indecent assault.
