A 56-year-old man, who police say offered a taxi ride to a teenage boy and then sexually assaulted him, was arrested and charged with the crime Tuesday.
The boy was standing at a bus stop near Patapsco Avenue and 9th Street in Brooklyn on the evening of Aug. 21, 2011 when Ted Bryant stopped his taxi cab and offered him a ride home, according to a statement Wednesday from police.
Before being dropped off in the 2400 block of Baker Street in West Baltimore, police said, the boy was sexually assault by Bryant.
Police arrested Bryant after a DNA match was made, the statement said.
An earlier version of this story incorrectly said the victim of sexual assault was a girl. The Sun regrets the error.
