ONSLOW COUNTY, NC (WECT) – Two men have been charged with sex offenses involving a minor, according to a news release from the Onslow County Sheriff's Office.

Jacksonville residents Luis Eduardo Sanchez, 33, and Alonzo Lee Davenport, 39, were charged Monday with statutory rape of a person who is 14 years old, statutory sexual offense against a person who is 14 years old, and indecent liberties with a child.

The charges allegedly stem from November 2012, when authorities say the suspects picked up a 14-year-old runaway on a Wilmington highway, took her to their home and committed sex acts against her.
