Police: photos of rape of Conn. teen posted online

WEST HAVEN, Conn. (AP) — West Haven police say two men sexually assaulted a 14-year-old girl and posted photos of the acts online.

Police have arrested 25-year-old James Conners of West Haven and are waiting for a judge to sign an arrest warrant for a 19-year-old man in connection with the alleged rape at the men's apartment on Jan. 14.

The New Haven Register reports an arrest warrant affidavit for Conners says the two men gave marijuana and alcohol to the girl and her friend and then forced the 14-year-old to engage in sex acts with them. Police say the girls skipped school before meeting up with the men.

Connors is charged with second-degree assault, risk of injury to a minor and promoting an obscene performance of a minor. His lawyer declined to comment.
