Black was accused of attacking a 15-year-old girl in Bristol Township’s Venice Ashby neighborhood in May 2018. He allegedly indecently assaulted the girl and took her iPhone 8 at gunpoint.

Court papers stated that Black showed up at the girl’s home with several other people.

A 17-year-old Philadelphia girl was charged in the case. She was charged as an adult, but the charges later changed to juvenile charges.
