Police are investigating a report of an off-campus sexual assault involving a University of Georgia student.
The 20-year-old student told investigators she accepted a ride from two people after meeting them in downtown Athens, police spokesman Capt. Christopher W. Nichols said in a news release.
The assault happened at some point during the ride about 3 a.m. Sunday, Nichols said.
Athens police Tuesday said they have identified the suspects in the case. The department is not releasing their names because they have not been arrested.
An investigation is ongoing. Anyone with information on the assault is urged to contact Detective Schmidt at 762-400-7308 or Lt. Derek Scott at 762-400-7068. Tipsters can remain anonymous, and be eligible for rewards of up to $2,000, by contacting Crime Stoppers at 706-705-4775.
