HAMDEN -- A 19 year-old Hamden resident turned himself in to police today after learning there was a warrant for his arrest on sex assault charges.

Cameron Hough was charged with first-degree sexual assault and risk of injury to a minor and is being held on a $150,000 bond, said Capt. Ronald Smith, the department spokesman.

Smith said police met with the girl's parents in August, when the incident was reported, and learned that she had accompanied three men, including Hough, to an isolated area on Dixwell Avenue.

The victim told police that she was assaulted by Hough inside a large "cement tube'' which is near a large Hamden store.

The suspect will be arraigned Nov. 25 in Meriden Superior Court.
