BB Gun Used in Rape, Police Say

MANASSAS, Va. — A woman was raped by a man wielding a BB gun, police said.

It happened on Saturday after a 21-year-old woman from Manassas picked up an known acquaintance who directed her to drive to the area of Par Drive and Vint Hill Road in Nokesville. Once there, the man pulled out the gun – later determined to be a BB gun – and raped the woman, said Prince William police spokesman Jonathan Perok.

The man then told the victim to drive him back home following the assault, police said. During a subsequent investigation, police said warrants were obtained for the man who was located on Glenolden Place in Prince William County.

Alfred Curtis Means, 21, of 9345 Way Myrtle Way in Manassas, is charged with rape, abduction, forcible sodomy, and with three counts of use of a firearm in commission of a felony, said Perok.

He was held without bond and his court date was not released by police.
