WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — Wichita authorities have charged a man in the sexual assault and burglary of a 100-year-old woman during a break-in at her home.

Thirty-five-year-old Kasey Nesbitt made his first court appearance Wednesday and was charged with rape and aggravated burglary.

The woman, who lives alone, told police that intruders forced open the door of her home on Sept. 29. She says they were in her home for several hours. Police say forensic evidence linked Nesbitt to the rape.

Nesbitt is being held in the Sedgwick County Jail on $250,000 bond. Online jail records didn’t indicate an attorney.
