Teens, 12-Year-Old Say They Were Grabbed, Groped At Wilmington Horse Auction




NEW CASTLE, Pa. -- State police are searching for a group of young Amish men who they say indecently assaulted three girls recently in Lawrence County.

The incident happened Sept. 2 at a horse auction that the girls attended with their parents on Route 208 in Wilmington Township, police said.

Five Amish men who were "allegedly under the influence of alcohol and controlled substances" groped and fondled two 13-year-old girls and a 12-year-old girl, according to a police report.

"If the victims did not heed their demands, they were forcibly grabbed and punched," police wrote in a media statement. "One female was dragged down several steps. She was to seek treatment at a Mercer County hospital."

Police said several witnesses have backed up the girls' account of the incident.

Troopers at the state police station in New Castle will hold a news conference about their investigation today at 11:30 a.m.

They need to fashion a viable aircraft using only wood and horsepower, first.

Don’t hold your breath.

No ages of the perps was given. I wonder if these were the Amish of the in-between years when they are given a pass by the elders to blow off steam before they have to decide to live a pious life?
