A parolee from Syracuse is now facing serious charges related to an attack on an 8-year-old girl in Utica.
Raoul Baldwin, 37, was arrested following an investigation into a report of a sexual assault and attempted abduction last Wednesday.
Baldwin was first arrested on a parole violation, and then charged with predatory sexual assault against a child, in connection with the attack.
The Oneida County Sheriff's Office says the victim has been offered services through the Child Advocacy Center.
Baldwin was jailed without bail.
