Published: November 2, 2009
DALE CITY -- Two teenage girls reported being abducted and raped after trick-or-treating Saturday.
About 9:10 p.m., police were called to investigate the abduction of three teenage girls. The victims told police they were walking in the area of Glendale Plaza in the 4300 block of Dale Boulevard after trick-or-treating, Prince William County police spokeswoman Erika Hernandez said.
The victims said a man approached and forced them at gunpoint into the woods behind the shopping center. The girls said the man ordered the victims to lie on the ground and raped two of the girls, ages 16 and 17, Hernandez said.
The other 16-year old girl was not assaulted. The victims -- all from Dale City -- were treated at a local hospital.

I hope that between the three girls, there will be enough od a description to catch this animal and bring him to some sort of justice. I also hope these girls are provided with the absolute best support available, I am sure they were scared to death, I commend them for having the courage to come forward and report the attack.
