Authorities say Antoine Newton and another unidentified man kidnapped a 14-year-old girl before sexually assaulting her in 2006 but thanks to a DNA match in Louisiana, he was able to get brought to justice.

Harris County

The statement reads Newton and the unidentified man saw the teenager "and began to catcall and harass her as we walked along Fondren in southwest Houston." Officials say one of the unidentified men "punched the teen in the face, knocking her out" and when she woke up the next morning in an abandoned apartment with no clothes and "feeling drugged."

Two years later, in 2016, authorities say Newton was convicted for his role in a murder in Louisiana and his DNA sample matched the rape kit.
