Five high school varsity basketball players in southwestern Michigan have been charged in connection with reported sexual assaults involving an underage female schoolmate.
The boys — ages 18 and 17 — attend South Haven High School and are charged as adults. They were arraigned Tuesday on third-degree criminal sexual conduct and released on bond. A probable cause conference is scheduled for Wednesday.
The girl is between 13 and 15 years old.
MLive.com reports that the incidents allegedly occurred between Nov. 1 and Dec. 6 at various locations including the girl’s home. Police say each incident involved only the girl and one of the suspects.
