San Ignacio girl raped

A young girl from the Cayo District was kidnapped and terrorized on Saturday by three men in a pick-up truck. The twelve year old told police she was walking with her seven year old brother on Hudson Street in San Ignacio around 6:30 a.m. when a blue pick-up stopped. A Creole man forced her into the truck leaving her little brother in the street. Two other men were in the truck and she was taken to a spot along the Benque Viejo Road. One of the passengers, a Hispanic man, then raped her. She was released and reported the matter to police. A medical exam supports her claim that she was sexually assaulted. Police have yet to make any arrests.
