An Arizona man has been charged with rape in Boone County.
Lonny Ray Caldwell, 52, of Fordyce, Arizona, was charged with forcible rape in February, but was arrested March 29 -- according to Casenet – in Dallas County, Arkansas. The Dallas County Sheriff told ABC 17 News that Caldwell was arrested on a warrant and he waived extradition.
Court documents state the alleged rape occurred 22 years ago, claiming Caldwell had intercourse with a person who was incapacitated on April 8, 2001.
Caldwell is being held in the Boone County jail without bond. An initial hearing was held Monday at the Boone County Courthouse.
