UPDATE: Video of Gang Rape Posted to Facebook
DAYTON -- Police are now working with local school resource officers, trying to identify a rape victim in a video that was posted to Facebook.

Police started investigating the rape after a woman called 911 and said she saw the rape on Facebook. Police met with the woman who reported it, and recorded the video off Facebook. 

The video has since been taken down, and police have not been able to identify the victim or any suspects in the  rape.
 
The woman says the video was titled "Dayton, Ohio."
 
According to the 911 call the woman tells the dispatcher:

"Its a little girl being raped by four boys."

"There is a guy holding her arms, there is a guy videotaping this, and there is a guy driving."  

"She has a school uniform on, and it's in Dayton, Ohio." 

"This is a matter that really needs to be handled, this is someone's child, this child has been raped."
 
The video is being analyzed by detectives at a crime lab here in the Miami Valley.
  
So far, detectives cannot figure out the exact location of the video, but are working with Facebook administrators, still hoping to figure out who posted it first.

If you have any information, give police a call at 333-COPS (2677).



Earlier coverage:

DAYTON -- Police detectives are investigating a sexual assault after a video of the attack was posted on Facebook.

According to police, a video that was posted on Facebook shows a girl getting gang raped in a car by at least three males.

"It's a relatively graphic video, depicting the sexual assault of a young female in her early teenage years," Dayton Police Sgt. Larry Tolpin said.
 
A woman reported the video to police this week, and police said the video is being shared by some in the Dayton community.

"The video is very concerning to us. We are looking into the possibility that it did happen in the Miami Valley region," Sgt. Tolpin said. 
      
Police are now working with Facebook administrators to try to figure out who initially posted the video and where it came from.
Investigators are also trying to identify the victim.

"We are working backwards in this case, trying to find out a location and a victim," Sgt Tolpin said.

Police are asking if you see the video on Facebook to immediately report it to Dayton Police by calling 937-333-COPS.UPDATE: Video of Gang Rape Posted to Facebook
