Piqua man indicted on multiple rape charges

A Piqua man pleaded not guilty Tuesday to two felony indictments for rape.

Griffin pleaded not guilty in Miami County Common Pleas Court, where a pretrial hearing was scheduled for July 23. Assistant Prosecutor Janna Parker opposed his release on a recognizance bond, citing the nature of the offenses alleged.

Bail was set at $15,000 cash or surety by Judge Christopher Gee.
