Patch Farmington, CT --Police discovered a 13-year-old girl inside a van with a 29-year-old man Monday around 5 a.m. and charged him with sexual assault.
An officer on routine patrol found the pair when he saw a van parked in a Lake Garda neighborhood with no lights on, according to Lt. Marshall Porter.
