Police Investigate Alleged Drugging and Rape of Woman on Broadway

A 36-year-old man has been charged with raping a college student he and another suspect found on Broadway earlier this month. The victim told Metro police she was with a friend at a honky tonk on Broadway on May 4. Her next memory was being in the back of a Jeep Grand Cherokee with two men she didn’t recognize. Over the next few hours, she was sexually assaulted by both men in the Jeep before being driven to an ATM to withdraw around $300 from her account. The victim’s credit card was then used at a gas station and a Waffle House. The suspect has been charged with aggravated kidnapping, aggravated rape, credit card fraud, evading arrest, theft and possession of a controlled substance.
