The man accused of raping a woman on the Allegheny National Forest has been indicted by a federal grand jury.

35-year-old Mike Beaulieu of Anson, Maine, is charged with aggravated sexual abuse, kidnapping, using and carrying a firearm during a crime of violence and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.

On August 3, Beaulieu kidnapped a woman from the Kinzua Point Information Center, and used a handgun to force her to engage in a sexual act after taking her to a remote area of McKean County. He’s also accused of restraining the woman’s boyfriend with rope and duct tape.

Beaulieu is currently being held in a Canadian prison on a weapons charge, and a hearing is scheduled for next Wednesday. He fled the country after the incident in the forest.
