He will appear at Croydon Magistrates’ Court today.

On Sunday, the teen girl reported being taken by the McDonalds, in Rye Lane, and then allegedly raped in William Griggs Garden, off Elm Grove.

This is just metres from where a woman reported a stranger rape on January 14, however police said there was “no evidence to suggest that these incidents are linked”.
