6 Firefighters are accused of raping a 17 year old girl and posting it on Snapchat.



6 Volunteer fire fighters in Virginia have been arrested after being accused of raping a 17 year old girl and contributing to a minor. After raping the girl they put the video on Snapchat for hundreds of people to see. If convicted the men could face up to one year in prison and thousands of dollars in fines plus never be able to work for the city and fire department again. The Young woman said that at least one of the guys raped her but the other five were consensual after she was in fear of being around them. This investigation dates back to April after the mayor was alerted of the video on social media. The evidence was then handed over to the police for investigation where they identified the men and later arrested them.
