RALEIGH, N.C. — A Raleigh man was arrested Monday on charges that he kept a minor for sexual servitude, police said.

Kewon Tremayne Perry, 20, of 604 Rawls Drive, was charged with human trafficking of a child. Police said he kept a 17-year-old girl from Oct. 1 to Oct. 7, but the warrant doesn't say where she was held or if she escaped.

Perry was arrested at his home. The arrest report indicated that he is a student at Wake Technical Community College, but college officials said he never enrolled for classes after filling out an application last fall.

He is charged in an unrelated case with robbery with a dangerous weapon and was being held in the Wake County jail under a $450,000 bond.
