AGOURA HILLS, Calif. (KABC) -- An acting coach, who appeared in "Jurassic Park," has been arrested and charged for raping a 13-year-old girl in Agoura Hills from April 2008 to March 2009.

Cameron Thor, 54, was arrested on Tuesday by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department. Authorities say the victim had consulted Thor about attending acting classes, and after a meeting, the suspect allegedly drove her to a secluded area in Agoura Hills and raped her.

Thor and his wife founded Carter Thor Studio, an acting school on Ventura Court in Studio City, and the couple has several acting schools across the country. The website for the studio lists actors like Christina Applegate and Cameron Diaz as former students.
