A New Hampshire man was arrested Saturday on charges of aggravated sexual assault.

Erik Callahan, 19, of Nashua, was identified as the suspect in the sexual assault of a juvenile victim on March 23.

Each Class A felony is punishable by up to 15 years in state prison, while each Class B felony is punishable by up to seven.

Callahan was held on $50,000 cash bail and was scheduled to be arraigned at the Hillsborough County Superior Court South on Monday. It is unclear if he has an attorney.
