Mathew Clark

LARWILL — A six-month long rape investigation conducted by the Indiana State Police concluded an arrest.

Mathew Clark, 25, Albion, was arrested Sunday, April 11.

The ISP investigation began back in October 2020 after ISP Detective Andrew Mills received information regarding the allegation that Clark had raped a woman at a Larwill camping area in June 2020.

The completed ISP report was turned over to the Whitley County Prosecutor’s Office. On March 4, an arrest warrant was issued by the Whitley County courts for Clark’s arrest. Upon receiving the warrant, troopers immediately went to Clark’s residence in Albion but discovered that he had fled the area.

State Police eventually learned that Clark was staying in Mishawaka and he was soon taken into custody without incident.

Clark was taken to the Whitley County Jail, where he was booked into custody and remains held on a $100,00 bond pending a court appearance.
