That's when he allegedly stopped the car and asked the girl for a kiss while taking her cell phone.
When the girl tried to get out of the car, police say, Mejia accelerated.
He parked the car in a different location and locked the doors before allegedly forcing himself on her.
The victim was able to grab a plastic bottle, hit the suspect and escape to a nearby home to ask for help.
