18-year-old reports rape in Athens; man asks two Tech students for sex
A young woman told Athens police she was raped early Sunday by a man she thought was a cab driver, according to reports.The 18-year-old woman said she got into the car in downtown Athens around midnight Saturday. She reported that instead of taking her to the address she gave him, he drove around for about two hours before assaulting her. She said her attacker dropped her off at intersection of two relatively busy roadways just before 3 a.m., at Milledge Avenue and Baxter Street.Police told the Athens Banner-Herald
it was too soon to know if this attack was similar to one that happened
exactly a year ago involving a man also believed to be driving a cab.In
both cases, the man is described as a Hispanic.
Neither of the women is being identified because The Atlanta Journal-Constitution does not name victims of sexual assault.
Last year, on Sept. 4, a 20-year-old University of Georgia student got into a dark SUV on South Milledge Avenue around 1:30 a.m. and asked to be driven home. Six hours later a deputy spotted her walking along a highway in Jackson County, partially clothed and wrapped in a blanket.
No one has been charged in either attack.
Capt. Clarence Holeman told the Athens newspaper it was too soon to link the case until investigators gather more information.
“It’s too premature,” he said. “As far as I know, that case [the 2009
attack] is still very active.”
Also this weekend, Georgia Tech issued a safety alert after two students
reported that a man came into their dorm rooms early Saturday and asked for sex.
The first student said a man, claiming to be a Tech student living in the
same North Avenue campus apartment building, walked into her unlocked room around 3:45 a.m. She told police she screamed when he asked for sex and he left her room.
A second student reported a similar experience about 45 minutes later and in the same building. She said the man, whom she did not know, came into her room around 4:40 a.m. but he left when she declined his advances.
"The safety and security of our students is our top priority," Georgia Tech spokesman Matt Nagel said.
Georgia Tech Police are investigating the incidents and ask anyone with
information to call 404-894-2500.

一个年青女子向Athens警方报案说，她在星期天早上遭到一个她认为是出租车司机的强奸。这个１８岁的女子在星期六的子夜从Athens市中心上车。该司机没有送她要去的地方，而是带着她在车上转了两个小时，随后强奸了她。事后在凌晨三点左右，让她在Milledge Avenue and Baxter Street的十字路口下车。警方对Athens Banner-Herald说，一年以前也发生几乎同样的事情，也是涉及出租车司机，据描述嫌疑人为西班牙裔。但是，现在把这两个事情联系起来还过早。去年９月４日，乔治亚大学一个２０岁的学生凌晨1:30左右在South Milledge Avenue上了一辆黑色的ＳＵＶ，六个小时以后，警方发现她衣衫不整，裹着一条毯子走在 Jackson County的一条快车道边缘上。
这两个案子尚未侦破。警官Clarence Holeman告诉Athens报界，两案是否有关联还需要进一步的调查，现在下结论为时还早。而且去年的案子还在积极侦缉中。
这个周末，Georgia Tech发布安全警报，有两个女生报告，周六早晨她们在宿舍受到一个男人的性骚扰。第一个学生报告说，一个自称也是学生，同住在North Avenue 校区的男人，在凌晨３:４５分左右进入她没有上锁的房间，要求发生性行为，她尖叫了以后那个人便离开了。
第二个学生的报告基本相同，事发在４５分钟以后。她不认识那个人，该人在遭到拒绝以后离开。
Georgia Tech 发言人 Matt Nagel 声明，保护学生的安全是学校的首要职责。
Georgia Tech 警方正在对事情进行调查，并希望有知情者举报。
