OKLAHOMA CITY -

A DNA match has linked an Oklahoma inmate with the rape and kidnapping of a 14-year-old Oklahoma City girl.

The case had grown cold for more than two years. The charges were just filed today against that 19-year-old prisoner. His DNA matched the sample taken from that young rape victim. And for now, he is the only one being linked to the disturbing crime.

The police report states it was back in November of 2009, that a 14-year-old girl was walking home from school when she was approached by two men.

It happened near N.W. 19th and Purdue. She says the men told her to get into their car, but she refused and kept walking. That's when one of the men came up behind her, wrapped his gloved hand around her nose and mouth and grabbed her.

The police report states she thought there was some type of chemical on the glove and she passed out.

When she came to she says that's when she discovered one of the men on top of her.

"She woke up being sexually assaulted inside the car, she was then forced out of the car and left," MSgt. Gary Knight said.

Though she was not able to give police a good description of her attacker, police did conduct a rape exam and were able to get a DNA sample to run through CODIS, the national database.

"In order to get a CODIS hit we need a viable sample," Knight said.
