After two years of being on the run, a man was arrested Friday in DeKalb County and accused of raping a 14-year-old girl.

Daquan Riley, 23, was wanted on child molestation and rape charges in the alleged January 2015 incident, U.S. Marshals spokesman Jim Joyner told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

According to authorities, Riley forced the girl to have sex with him against her will in College Park.

The U.S. Marshals and Clayton County officials arrested Riley without incident at a DeKalb home at the intersection of South Hairston and Wesley Chapel roads, Joyner said.

No other details were released.
