COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa (AP) ā€” Police have charged a 40-year-old Council Bluffs man with kidnapping and sexually abusing a teenage girl. The Daily Nonpareil reports that 40-year old Fednol Garly St. Cyr was charged Friday with first-degree kidnapping, third-degree sexual abuse and indecent contact with a child. St. Cyr could face life in prison if convicted of the kidnapping charge.

Police Sgt. Chad Meyers says the girl told police she complied when St. Cyr told her to get into his truck on April 5th, but he later refused to let her get out. Police say St. Cyr drove to the back of a mall and sexually assaulted the girl.

St. Cyr remains in the Pottawattamie County Jail on $500,000 bond. His preliminary hearing is set for May 2nd.
