YORK — A Newport News man has been arrested after he allegedly sexually assaulted a 10-year-old girl in York County.
Ronald Smalley, 30, surrendered Tuesday at the Virginia Peninsula Regional Jail on outstanding warrants for felony aggravated sexual battery of a child and contributing to the delinquency of a minor, York-Poquoson Sheriff’s Office spokeswoman Shelley Ward said.
Authorities believe he sexually assaulted the girl June 30 inside a residence in the 100 block of Walnut Drive.
