Teen boy charged with raping girl during party at Prince William County hotel

Prince William County police say a teenage girl was raped at a hotel in Manassas.

According to investigators, the alleged attack happened last Sunday after 3 a.m. at the Rimpal Inn and Suites on Old Centreville Road. Both the victim and the suspect are local high school students.

Several teenagers were at the hotel where a party was being held in one of the rooms. Police say alcohol was being consumed by the teenagers.

According to police, the sexual assault happened after the victim passed out at the party. The victim reported the incident two days later to a school resource officer.

On Friday, Prince William County police arrested a 17-year-old boy. He has been charged with rape and object sexual penetration. He is being held at a juvenile detention center.

It is unclear how the teenagers were able to rent a room at the hotel. A hotel employee at the front desk said they only rent to people who are at least 21 years old.
