North Side man sought for alleged assault of teen girl
A man from Pittsburgh’s North Side is wanted for allegedly sexually assaulting a 16-year-old girl.
Pittsburgh police issued an arrest warrant for James McCray, 41, on charges of unlawful contact with a minor, indecent assault and three counts of corruption of minors. Charges were filed Tuesday.
Tribune-Review news partner WPXI-TV reported McCray, who sometimes goes by James Wilson, is a “Tier 3” sex offender after previously being convicted of rape and sexual assault of a 14-year-old, 16-year-old and 20-year-old.
His sex crimes date back to April 2001, when he committed three assaults over one spring and summer, resulting in three convictions.
According to reports in the latest case, McCray offered a ride to a teen girl shortly after 7 a.m. on Sept. 27.
However, instead of taking her to her destination, police said McCray took her to his house. McCray allegedly picked up alcohol and marijuana and assaulted the girl in his car.
Photos and more information about McCray are available on the Megan’s Law website.
Anyone with information about his whereabouts should contact Pittsburgh police at 412-323-7800.
