A man is in custody in North Carolina after he was accused of raping a 16-year-old girl in a Cobb County hotel, officials said.
U.S. marshals arrested Algeray McCall at an extended stay motel in Greensboro, North Carolina, on May 20, the Cobb sheriff’s office said in an Instagram post.
Cobb investigators said McCall went to the motel to hide after he became aware of a warrant for his arrest. The warrant, issued April 7, accuses McCall of raping the girl after offering to drive her to see one of her relatives.
McCall knew the teen prior to the attack, according to the warrant. He picked up the girl at a Varsity restaurant in Atlanta and drove her to a Marriott hotel in Cobb on March 13, the warrant said.
The pair stayed there overnight, and the next morning he took the girl to her mother’s house. The teen told her mother that McCall had forced himself on her, the warrant said.
The girl told investigators that McCall rubbed lotion on the back of her legs, then performed sexual acts on her while she was face-down on the bed, according to the warrant.
“The victim stated that she tried to get up and he pushed her head back down on the bed,” the warrant said.
McCall was arrested at the Greensboro hotel after “extensive surveillance” and taken to the Guilford County Jail, where he remains awaiting extradition to Georgia, according to Cobb officials.
