A hulking “Austin Powers” actor may be the real Dr. Evil.
Joe Son, 37 – who played shoe-tossing villain Random Task in the 1997 Mike Myers comedy – was fingered in a gang-rape case going back 17 years in California after his DNA matched evidence from the file, authorities said.
On Christmas Eve 1990, Son and an accomplice allegedly approached the victim as she was walking home, according to the Orange County District Attorney’s Office.
After Son pretended to be lost, the suspects grabbed her, dragged her to their car and drove off, authorities said.
During the nightmare ride, Son and his accomplice allegedly pistol-whipped the victim and threatened to kill her.
The pair then brutally raped her before dumping her on the side of a street, authorities said.
Sources said Son was serving time for a probation violation in an earlier vandalism case when the DNA hit came through.
The victim in the vandalism case identified Son, who was charged with rape and sodomy, authorities said.
