Among the felonies filed Friday in Cleveland County District Court were charges alleging rape, filed against two Norman residents.
Brandon Wayne Brown, 33, Norman, was charged with first-degree rape by instrumentation; forcible sodomy and lewd acts with a child.
According to court documents, a 9-year-old girl told authorities she'd been molested over the past two years at a residence in the 2000 block of Cimarron Circle and another residence on Twisted Oaks.
A warrant was issued for Brown's arrest, and to detain him on $50,000 bond.
In an unrelated case, David John Leslie, 43, Norman, was charged with first-degree rape by instrumentation and lewd acts with a child, after former conviction of a felony.
According to court documents, a 14-year-old girl told authorities Leslie had molested her for several years at a residence in the 800 block of Lexington Street and in south Oklahoma City.
Investigators said Leslie has a prior conviction for child rape. Police thought Leslie was living in Kansas, but were unable to locate him. A warrant has been issued for his arrest, and to detain him on a $200,000 bond.

· David Lester Thacker, 49, Norman, unlawful possession of a controlled dangerous substance;
