Well I'm the poster who lives in the area. I agree that something is weird about the lack of details in the story. Maybe it was someone the girl new (but was still rape)?
At any rate, there has been an increase in police activity in the area so the police must have some suspicion that something happened. There were police cars by the elementary school and on a few of the roads around it yesterday. Even later into the evening/night.

What's odd with this? Shouldn't the perp 'force' the victim in some way?
Someone please explain this unusual choice of words.
What if he indicated he had a weapon. All of this second guessing of the victim is heartless and cruel. Why would someone lie about this?
Then the police typicality say:
"At gunpoint" or whatever weapon it was. You know that, don't you?

They would have reported that he had a gun.
Kids lie all the time. Where have you been?

I was assaulted in college and walked back onto campus through crowds in broad daylight. Not all rapes involve having the crap beat out of you so that you have torn clothes or a heavily bruised face. It's still rape. A naive HS girl might have been intimidated by a larger adult male and too scared to run away or scream.

I hope they get some more info out. I live near there, though my kids are only in ES. I would think there were a decent amount of people on the road at that hour. Hopefully someone saw something.

A message from SHERWOOD HIGH SCHOOL
Dear Parents and Guardians:
This message is to inform you about an incident that happened in our community on Thursday, September 15, 2016. The Montgomery County Police Department has issued a press release indicating that an assault occurred in the Olney/Sandy Spring area http://www.mymcpnews.com/2016/09/16/detectives-investigate-rape-of-teenager-in-sandy-spring-area/ . The police are investigating the incident. Anyone with information about this assault is asked to call the Special Victims Investigations Division at 240-773-5400 or Crime Solvers of Montgomery County toll-free at 1-866-411-TIPS (8477).
The safety and security of our students is paramount. Please take this opportunity to remind your children of the importance of remaining alert, the procedures they are to follow when approached by strangers, and to report anything suspicious to you, a staff member, or the police. Additionally, review safety practices at home:
* When walking to/from school, never walk alone. Always walk with at least one friend; two or three is even better.
* If a stranger follows you on foot, get away from him or her as quickly as you can. You can run and yell, “HELP!”
* If a stranger offers you a ride, say “NO!” and stay far away from the car.
* Never leave school with a stranger.
* Tell a trusted adult if a stranger is lingering on school property.
As always, thank you for your cooperation and support.
Sincerely,
William M. Gregory, Principal
