More than a month after Troy A. Graves allegedly kidnapped and sexually assaulted a girl at gunpoint near his Southeast Side home, police arrested him Friday at Union Station.

Graves, of the 700 block of East 130th Place in Chicago?s Altgeld Gardens neighborhood, faces one count of aggravated criminal sexual assault with a weapon and one count of aggravated armed kidnapping in connection with the Nov. 19 incident.

Graves, 22, is accused of attacking and sexually assaulting a 16-year-old girl in the 900 block of East 133rd Place. During a Cook County Bond Court appearance Sunday, prosecutors said Grave threatened the girl with the gun while he sexually assaulted her.

Officers learned he would be arriving at Union Station on Friday and arrested him there without incident at 3:30 p.m. Graves was identified by the victim as her attacker, according to a police report.

At Cook County Bond Court on Sunday, Judge Adam Bourgeois Jr. ordered Graves held on $1 million bail. He?ll have to post $100,000 to leave custody. Graves is due back in court on Monday.
