CLEVELAND, OH (WOIO) –
A downtown protestor camping out for the “Occupy Cleveland” movement reported that she was raped in her tent.
Cleveland Police are just beginning their investigation, but the victim claims she was sexually assaulted by a stranger on Saturday, October 15th. The teen tells police she was asked by rally personnel to share a tent with the suspect due to the shortage of tents.
The victim is a 19-year-old student at Summit Academy in Parma. On Monday, she went to school and told a teacher about the attack. The teacher immediately contacted police.
Dozens of people have set up shop downtown for more than a week as part of a worldwide movement of protests against corporate greed.
