A Moravia teenager was arrested Tuesday by the Cayuga County Sheriff's Office on charges he forcibly raped a 16-year-old female acquaintance after following her into a wooded area.
Brandon M. Thompson, 17, of 19 Abrio Drive, was charged with the felonies of first-degree rape and a first-degree sexual abuse.

The rape allegedly occurred Sunday, authorities said. Sheriff's deputies responded to the Pleasant Valley Trailer Park on Dresserville Road in response to a rape report.

The victim was treated and released at an area hospital, the sheriff's office reported.
