WYOMING — A local teen is believed to the target of a abduction and rape by a Wyoming man last month.

Wyoming police confirm the 16-year-old girl was walking along the road way when the alleged incident happened.

It reportedly happened along Clyde Park and 44th Street as the teen was walking home in June.

Chol Thiek Deng, 38, is in jail awaiting kidnapping and sexual assault charges.

Police say she did not know the man, but may have been the intended target of the attack.
