Crime alert: Student allegedly raped, kidnapped on Saturday

An Ohio University female student reported that two men kidnapped and raped her at Riverpark Towers at 2 a.m. Saturday.

After allegedly forcing her out of the parking lot, the woman said the two men ignored her pleas to be released and assaulted her by means of sexual conduct at 33 N. McKinley St., Apt. 104. When they decided to release the woman, they warned her that they would follow her back to the party she had been at to ensure she wouldn't tell anyone what happened, according to the search warrant.

Officers seized three used condoms and wrappers, one quilt and two blankets from the apartment and sent the evidence to the Bureau of Criminal Identification and Investigation for processing. No charges against the two OU upperclassmen who live there have been filed, Athens Police Officer Rick Olexa said.

She reported the incident to the Athens Police Department and was taken to O'Bleness Memorial Hospital shortly after, Olexa said.
