Man accused of raping teen in Pittsburgh while walking home from bus stop

PITTSBURGH — A man is facing numerous charges after police say he raped a 13-year-old girl while she was walking home in Pittsburgh.

According to a criminal complaint, the incident took place in mid-October.

The girl told police a man in a ski mask started following her after she got off a bus by the Greenfield Tunnel, calling out to her even though she kept walking.

He eventually approached her, making comments about her body, touching her, asking about her sexual history, offering to pay her and disclosing he had a condom.

The teen informed the man of her age, 13, and he told her that he was 27.

The man went on to rape the teen, and once the assault was over, he wrote his phone number on a paper he found in her backpack.

Police used the phone number to identify Quinlan Burke as a suspect. The victim later picked Burke out of a photo array of eight men.

Burke is now facing 16 charges, including rape, statutory sexual assault, unlawful contact with a minor and several counts of indecent assault.

Online court records show that he has not yet been taken into custody.
