According to authorities, at about 3 p.m., the boy allegedly took two cellphones from a 15-year-old girl's victim’s desk. She followed him into a hallway to get her phone back, when he allegedly grabbed her by the neck and forced her to a back stairway. Once in the hallway, he choked her, pulled her down the stairs and sexually assaulted the victim, prosecutors said.

He has been charged with: two counts of first degree criminal sexual conduct, four counts of third degree criminal sexual conduct and larceny of less than $200.

A $25,000 cash bond was ordered, pending a preliminary examination scheduled for Oct. 26. If bond is posted, the boy must have no contact, direct or indirectly, with the victim or any potential witness in this case. Â
