KENNER, La. (KNOE/AP) -- Louisiana authorities said three brothers are accused of raping a 10-year-old girl.
Raul and Wilmer Paz Perez were arrested Saturday and charged with first-degree rape of a victim under the age of 13. Kenner Police said Monday that Elder Paz Perez remains a fugitive.
Police said the brothers were alone with the girl on Sept. 9 and began making sexual advances toward her. Police said the girl refused and locked herself in a room, but the men allegedly broke in and raped her.
Kenner Police said the brothers offered the girl money, but she refused before locking herself in the bathroom. The trio used something, possibly a butter knife, to unlock the door, NOLA.com reports.
NOLA.com reports the brothers are friends of the victim's family, according to authorities. One of the girl's relatives contacted police Saturday after she revealed the rape.
