An arrest has been made in the assault of 2 children in Lancaster County in 1997, state police said.
DNA evidence led to a man’s arrest this week in the sexual abuse of two children 26 years ago in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania State Police said.
After the assaults, a then-unidentified Dorwart fled the scene in a light blue work van with a ladder on the back, state police said. DNA collected from the crime scene was run through police databases over the years, but a match was never made. “Dorwart was of sufficient age to have committed the sex assault and would have matched the physical description provided by the victims at the time of the incident,” state police said.
A preliminary hearing is scheduled for Aug. 29 in front of Magisterial District Judge Raymond Sheller.
