Young Urbandale Men Charged with Sex Abuse of Teen Girl

Two men face felony charges.


Two Urbandale men have been charged with third-degree sexual abuse of a 14-year-old girl, according to Urbandale police.

William J. Messenger, 20, and Sefik Ademovic,  19, are accused of having sex with the girl, said Lt. Rob Johansen. He said although the sex was not forcible, the girl's age makes it a crime.

Messenger, who was arrested on June 28 is being held in Polk County Jail on a $10,000 bond. Ademovic, arrested Monday, was released from jail on Tuesday.
