Investigators in the Hudson Valley announced the arrest of Ulster County resident Daniel Wolven, of Kingston, on Tuesday, April 27, following a lengthy investigation into alleged rapes involving a minor.

Police said that it is alleged that Wolven had sexual intercourse in multiple locations over the course of seven years with a child who was under the age of 17.

The arrest by the New York State Police Bureau of Criminal Investigation came based on a grand jury indictment signed by Ulster County Court Judge Brian Rounds.

Wolven was arrested without incident and charged with two counts of third-degree rape, both felonies. Following his arrest, Wolven was remanded to the Ulster County Jail without bail. No return court date has been announced.
