HAGATNA, Guam — A Navy sailor on Guam has been charged with rape, molestation and child abuse.

According to Superior Court of Guam documents, 30-year-old Bradford Laurence Lung molested a young girl several times a week since August 2010 and forced her to perform oral sex on him.

Pacific Daily News reports that court documents show the alleged victim is now 10 years old and said Lung has been touching her sexually for years.

The allegations were reported to police by the Naval Criminal Investigative Service.

A U.S. Naval Base Guam spokeswoman says the Eureka, Calif., native has been on Guam since 2009.

Guam Attorney General spokeswoman Carlina Charfauros says Lung is being held on $75,000 cash bail. A woman reached by phone at his home Saturday declined to comment.
