Two men remain behind bars after confessing to sexually assaulting two young girls. Police charged 18 year-old Theodes Shells and 19 year-old Joshua Willis with aggravated sexual assault of a child. Members of two families reported their 12 year-old girls missing Tuesday night. They say the girls came home Wednesday afternoon and told them men had kidnapped and sexually assualted them. Police arrived on the scene, after family members went to Morocco Apartments to confront the two suspects.
"There are two victims and two suspects and both assaults occurred at the same location, you don't see that happening very often, so that adds a degree of complications to the investigations," says Lt. Neal Barron with Lubbock Police.
If convicted, those men could face up to life in prison.
