HICKORY A man who just finished a prison term in Pennsylvania has been charged with two seven-year-old sex offenses in Hickory.
Timothy William Fletcher, 39, was charged Friday with felony sex offense and taking indecent liberties with a child, said Sgt. Scott Hildebrand of the Hickory Police Department.
Authorities issued a warrant for Fletcher's arrest in 2000 after his girlfriend told officers that her 8-year-old daughter had been molested by her boyfriend, Hildebrand said. Hildebrand said Fletcher left the state before the district attorney could issue an indictment for his arrest.
In 2001, Fletcher was charged on several sex offense charges involving a 3-year-old girl in Pennsylvania and sentenced to jail. Fletcher was extradited to Catawba County after completing his sentence. He was being held Monday on a $250,000 bond at the Catawba County jail.
