A Bryan man is facing sexual assault of a child charges, 16 years after police say the incident happened.

40-year-old Jose Rojas-Meliton (mel-uh-tone) has been charged with the aggravated sexual assault of a 13-year-old girl he knew in 2000.

Authorities say they were tipped off about the alleged suspect after a recent investigation.

Bryan police were held up in the case, after they say Rojas fled to Mexico before they were able to obtain a statement.

Rojas has admitted to having sexual relations with the victim back when she was 13.

Rojas is being held on $200,000 bond in the Brazos County Jail.
