Greenville police worked with the U.S. Marshals Fugitive Task Force to nab Kaimeek Keiron Brown, of 1007 Colonial Avenue, shortly after noon.
On Monday, the student told police that a man got into her car in the on-campus parking lot at East 3rd and Reade streets, displayed a handgun and made her withdraw money from various ATMs before she managed to escape.
Brown was charged with first-degree kidnapping, first-degree sex offense, robbery with a dangerous weapon and possession of stolen property. He was being held in the Pitt County jail under a $651,000 secured bond.
Police said Brown is currently on probation for property crimes.
He is scheduled to appear in court Wednesday.
