A 56-year-old Goldsboro man was charged Tuesday in connection with the January sexual assault of a 19-year-old man, police said. 

Ricky Turner, of 212 E. Holly St., faces one count each of sexual battery, false imprisonment and communicating threats. 

According to investigators, the 19-year-old was assaulted while visiting Turner's home in late January. Police said the two men knew each other.

What is exactly wrong with these old men chasing these young men/girls who have no interest in them? They should be reported every time to the police. If they have a wife, by all means tell her, I can assure you it will stop then.

The victim is not identified, only the accused abuser.

immaannoid-- they may have changed it but I don't see where they named the victim.

what's your point pig, other than tasteless?

I thought WRAL didn't identify victims of sexual abuse?
