MONTGOMERY, AL (WSFA) - A man classified as a serial rapist and sexual predator is in police custody in Montgomery. Authorities say one man can be connected to at least three separate rape cases and that he used social media to lure his potential victims.

Montgomery Police have charged one man, 21-year-old Roderikus Alloway with 12 felony counts - three counts of first degree rape, four counts of first degree sodomy, one count of first degree sexual abuse, one count of first degree kidnapping, three counts of first degree burglary and additional probation violations.

Investigators say Alloway is responsible for at least three separate rape cases within the Montgomery city limits. Alloway would use social networking sites to befriend his eventual victims before luring them to a private place.
