Police Investigating High School Rape Complaint
A 14-year-old boy is in jail on a charge that he raped a 14-year-old classmate while at school at Humboldt High. Police said they were called to the school at around 5:30 p.m. Tuesday, and the 14-year-old boy was arrested in connection with the attack on the young girl. Humboldt High School Principal Arthur Moss said the student has been suspended awaiting the outcome of the investigation. Moss said parents shouldn’t be worried, and school officials are “concerned about students’ safety.” Investigators said the teen will be prosecuted in Gibson County Juvenile Court on a rape charge.
