Philly man charged with sexually assaulting 11-year-old in Bucks County

A 31-year-old Philadelphia man has been charged with sexually assaulting a minor in Bucks County who was initially 11 years old and then victimized for several years, authorities said Wednesday.

Bryan Christopher Williams was arrested early Tuesday by the U.S. Marshals Service Eastern Pennsylvania Violent Crimes Fugitive Task Force and was being held without bail at the Bucks County Correctional Facility.

The investigation began in late March when a report was filed with the Falls Township Police Department, the Bucks County District Attorney’s Office said.

The sexual assaults allegedly happened on county-owned property and other locations, including the Mill Creek Village Apartments in Penndel and the Neshaminy Shore Picnic Park in Hulmeville.

The alleged sexual assaults happened between 2021 and 2025, the Bucks County District Attorney’s Office said.

The victim provided investigators with a recording of a phone conversation from September 2025 in which Williams allegedly confirmed the sexual assaults when confronted by the victim.

The case was investigated by Bucks County Detectives and the Bucks County Park Police.

Williams was charged with rape of a child, involuntary deviate sexual intercourse with a child, rape by forcible compulsion, statutory sexual assault, and corruption of minors, the district attorney’s office said.

“Thanks to the coordinated efforts of the U.S. Marshals, our county detectives, and the Bucks County Park Police, a dangerous individual is off the streets and will face justice,” District Attorney Joe Khan said in a statement.

“Dangerous offenders should not be permitted to buy their way out of jail,” Khan added. “That’s why, in situations like this, where no conditions can ensure the safety of the community, we will continue to push for defendants to be held in custody without the ability to post any amount of cash bail.”
