(Pittsburgh , Pa.) An Allegheny County Judge upheld the charges against William Gorring the man accused of grabbing a 9-year-old girl as she waited at her school bus stop in Coraopolis earlier this month during his preliminary hearing yesterday.
The judge’s decision came after the nine-year-old victim testified that “ Gorring put his hand over my mouth and the back of my head.” as she waited at her bus stop by herself at the intersection of McCabe Avenue and School Street in Coraopolis.
The victim was able to drop to the ground to get away from Gorring
The Criminal complaint states that once she got away and Gorring fled she boarded the bus to school and then provided police with a description of Gorring. He was taken into custody shortly after that.
Gorring is being represented by a public defender and has plead not guilty.
