Men Accused In Local Gang Rape

NEW SMYRNA BEACH, Fla. -- An Navy religious program specialist is among three people accused in a local gang rape.

Two men have been arrested and a third is on the run.

The victim's husband said his wife is doing better but is not ready to talk about what happened.
Deputies said the victim put herself in a bad situation but couldn't predict and didn't deserve what happened to her next.

"(It's a) very graphic description, and I was horrified, because I knew two of the people very well," said one of the suspects' roommates, who did not wish to be identified.

Investigators interrogated the man about his roommate and the reported gang rape.

Police said the woman told them she went to the New Smyrna Beach area home to buy some drugs and three men attacked her, taking turns holding her down and raping her.

"I was just shocked," the roommate said. "How could they do this?"
