RALEIGH, N.C. — A fugitive was brought to the Wake County Jail six years to the day after Colorado authorities issued warrants against him for child-sex charges.

Authorities in Castlerock in Colorado's Douglas County issued warrants against Pastrana for sex assault of a child, violent-crime sexual offense and three counts of assault on a peace officer. Those warrants were issued on Nov. 19, 2002.
