A 14-year-old arrested in connection to a violent attack in Muncie is being charged as an adult.

The Delaware County Prosecutor’s Office announced a slew of charges against the teen, including attempted rape and reckless homicide.

Police say the 14-year-old allegedly assaulted a woman at an apartment before stealing her vehicle and crashing it, killing the driver of another car.

A juvenile magistrate for Delaware Circuit Court 2 found the teen should stand trial as an adult because he was “beyond rehabilitation under the juvenile justice system”.
