ST. CROIX — V.I.P.D. officers on Thursday at about 5:01 a.m. arrested two young men who allegedly raped a 16-year-old girl at a party in the Frangipani neighborhood of Mon Bijou on August 4. The arrest warrant was issued by the Superior Court of the Virgin Islands.
That’s according to V.I.P.D. Public Information Glen Dratte, who issued a release on the arrest late Thursday. Mr. Dratte said the 16-year-old told police that she had consumed some alcohol at the house party and decided to get some rest in a bedroom. However, as she was resting, two men identified as 20-year-old David Anthony Armstrong Jr., above left, and 22-year-old Glenn Adjani David, above right, came into the bedroom and began raping her.
Both men were charged with first-degree rape and unlawful sexual contact, according to Mr. Dratte. The men were not granted bail, and were therefore remanded to the Golden Grove Detention Center pending their advisement hearing.
The case is under investigation by the V.I.P.D.’s Domestic Violence Unit, Mr. Dratte said. The force is asking anyone with information about the incident to call 340-778-4950, or 340-778-2211. You may also send your tip anonymously online to Crime Stoppers USVI, here.
