Pittsburgh PA —- (WPXI) – A Bridgeville man charged with sexually assaulting a 14-year-old girl in Washington County has been taken into custody. Earlier this month, Allegheny County Police filed a number of charges against 27-year-old Zachary Kelly, including indecent assault and corruption of minors, in connection with an assault that the victim told police took place in March 2022 while she was in a parked car with Kelly in Carnegie. Detectives developed information that Kelly might be in Washington County. On Thursday, he was found inside of an abandoned house in Canton Township. Kelly initially attempted to resist the action of  the detectives but was quickly taken into custody. In addition to the charges connected to the assault, Kelly also has an active warrant out of Upshur County West Virginia for grand larceny and destruction of property and after being transported back to the Allegheny County Jail, he was also charged with being a fugitive from justice in connection with those charges.
