An Ebensburg man has been charged by Summerhill Township police with sexually assaulting a boy more than three years ago.
Robert Hummel, 68, of the 100 block of East Milton Street, is accused of assaulting the boy – who was younger than 13 at the time of the alleged incident – in June or July 2004.
The police filed charges of statutory sex assault, rape and indecent assault.
A preliminary hearing is scheduled for March 26 before District Judge Galen Decort. Hummel is released on unsecured bond.
