Shortly after noon today, two Oregon State Police detectives and a trooper arrested a 17-year-old Molalla High School student from the high school campus on sexual assault charges stemming from an incident that took place in December 2006 during an MHS basketball team trip to Sisters, Ore.
The student arrested today was transported to Portland and lodged in the Donald E. Long Home, a juvenile detention facility, on charges of unlawful sexual penetration in the first degree, coercion, harassment and probation violation. As of press time, OSP LT. Gregg Hastings said he could not disclose the charges that led to the youth's probation.
The OSP investigation was launched in January after an initial report was filed with the Deschutes County Sheriff's Office.
"The detectives, after working on this since late January, finally felt there was enough probable cause to make the arrest," Hastings said.
He added, "The investigation is continuing and we'll have to see if there are any future developments."
