Bryan Christopher Williams, 31, of Philadelphia, was apprehended around 7:30 a.m. on Tuesday, April 21 at a residence in Philadelphia by the U.S. Marshals Service Eastern Pennsylvania Violent Crimes Fugitive Task Force, according to the Bucks County District Attorney’s Office.
He was transported to Bucks County and turned over to county detectives for processing, officials said.
Williams is charged with rape of a child, involuntary deviate sexual intercourse with a child, rape by forcible compulsion, statutory sexual assault, and corruption of minors, according to the DA’s office.
The investigation began after Falls Township police received a report in late March involving sexual assaults on county-owned property, authorities said. Bucks County detectives and park police conducted a joint investigation.
According to the affidavit, the victim — who was 11 years old at the time of the first assault — provided investigators with a recorded phone call from September 2025 in which Williams allegedly confirmed the encounters when confronted.
The assaults are believed to have occurred between 2021 and 2025 at multiple locations, including Mill Creek Village Apartments in Penndel and Neshaminy Shore Picnic Park in Hulmeville, officials said.
Williams was arraigned before Magisterial District Judge Daniel Baranoski and denied bail due to the risk he poses to the victim and the community, resulting in his commitment to Bucks County Correctional Facility, authorities said.
“Arresting fugitives accused of sexual offenses protects the community and prevents further harm,” Supervisory Deputy Marshal Robert Clark said. “Prioritizing this arrest sends a clear message that sex crimes will not be overlooked.”
Falls Township Police Chief Nelson Whitney said the case highlights coordination between agencies.
“This case is a great example of how multiple law enforcement agencies, along with the District Attorney’s Office, can coordinate efforts and work together to bring dangerous offenders to justice,” Whitney said.
District Attorney Joe Khan praised the arrest and emphasized public safety.
“The safety of our children is a paramount priority,” Khan said. “Thanks to the coordinated efforts of the U.S. Marshals, our county detectives, and the Bucks County Park Police, a dangerous individual is off the streets and will face justice.”
Authorities believe there may be additional victims. Anyone with information is asked to contact Bucks County Detectives at 215-348-6354.
