US Marshals arrested a man wanted in a Virginia child rape case in Lexington Wednesday.
A jury convicted Douglas “Scott” McBride, 51, of rape, taking indecent liberties with a minor and contributing to the delinquency of a minor in 2013, but he jumped bond and never showed up for his sentencing in Dinwiddie, Va.

Officials say marshals received a tip that McBride was hiding out in Lexington and tracked him to a home on Pasadena Avenue. Officers say the resident who opened the door initially denied McBride was there, but eventually let fugitive task force members inside. Officials say officers found McBride hiding in a back bedroom, along with 18 marijuana plants.
“The apprehension of this fugitive is a direct result of the perseverance of our investigators and the inter agency cooperation that exists on our fugitive task forces. Our citizens can rest a little easier tonight knowing this convicted child rapist is behind bars,” U.S. Marshal Robert Mathieson said.
Investigators say McBride had been in Lexington for about eight months.
He now faces additional drug charges in Kentucky.
