New Jersey man charged with sexually abusing child while walking dog

Irvington, New Jersey – A New Jersey man has been arrested on suspicion of sexually assaulting an 11-year-old child while he was walking his dog.

According to police, surveillance video from June 3 allegedly shows a man grabbing the child and dragging her into the backyard of an Irvington property where the alleged assault took place.

Caream Davis, 46, was identified as a suspect by the Essex County District Attorney’s Office and the Irvington Department of Public Safety.

Members of the US Marshals Service arrested Davis late Wednesday evening in Richmond, Virginia. He is accused of sexual assault, attempted murder, kidnapping and endangering the welfare of a child.

Davis was behind bars in Virginia awaiting extradition to New Jersey. How Garden State investigators learned of his out-of-state whereabouts was not immediately clear.

Davis is also accused of sexual abuse of an adult in another case.
