Jun. 10—A Dayton man was indicted Wednesday in the rape earlier this month of a 17-year-old girl authorities said he did not know.

Elyas Farhid Ahad, 45, is scheduled to be arraigned Tuesday in Montgomery County Common Pleas Court for rape, attempted rape and two counts of gross sexual imposition.

The sexual assault was reported to have happened June 1 on North Broadway Street in Dayton.

"There is one 17-year-old female victim, who was a stranger to the defendant," said Greg Flannagan, spokesman for the Montgomery County Prosecutor's Office.

Dayton police began an investigation after the teen reported it, he said.

McGahn: Effort to get Mueller fired was 'point of no return'
Former White House counsel Don McGahn told lawmakers in a closed-door interview last week that he regarded President Donald Trump's effort to have special counsel Robert Mueller fired as “a point of no return" for the administration if carried out. McGahn, who resisted Trump's directive that he contact then-Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein to press for Mueller's removal from the Russia investigation, said the demand seemed “an inflection point” that would have prompted Rosenstein either to fire Mueller or resign himself, according to a transcript released Wednesday by the House Judiciary Committee.
