An 18-year-old man twice convicted of burglarizing the St. Paul home of a woman he didn't know in 2011 is under arrest, suspected of returning to her home this week and raping the 65-year-old resident.
Curtez Deshawn Graham was on furlough from the Minnesota Correctional Facility-Red Wing, a juvenile detention facility, when he cut off his GPS bracelet and went on the run Monday, said Art Coulson, Ramsey County spokesman.
As law enforcement searched for Graham, they heard he might be armed with a gun, and the burglary victim was notified the man was on the loose, Coulson said.
