ANDERSON — Security for coeds at Anderson University was stepped up early today following the reported rape of an 18-year-old student.

According to Anderson police, the student was abducted by two men as she walked near the school’s soccer field about 1 a.m. at Calhoun Street and Kingsley Road. She was driven to another location and reportedly raped and returned to campus about an hour later, according to a spokesman for the Anderson Police Department.

Randall Williams, the police spokesman, said the two men have not been arrested. Each one faces charges in the attack on the woman.

The woman was treated at AnMed Health Medical Center, according to the incident report.
Williams said the victim did not know her attackers.

Williams said students should not venture outside at night unless they go with a companion, are aware of their surroundings and have a cellular phone with them.
