After nearly six years evading capture, a Gloucester Township man accused of sexually assaulting a child has been arrested.

Prosecutors say 42-year-old Brian Rivers Jr. faces about a dozen charges related to the assault.

Rivers allegedly fled to Mexico following the crime but was apprehended last week through a joint effort by U.S. Marshals and Mexican authorities.

He is scheduled to appear for a detention hearing tomorrow.
