The Sheriff’s Office says Fernandez, left, and Reyes, right, broke into the victim’s home in the Palm Terrace Gardens neighborhood off U.S. 19 in the early hours Wednesday. The victim told deputies the attackers wore masks, beat her in her bed, raped her and ransacked her house.
They fled when she kicked one of them in the “vital parts,” according to a neighbor. She went to a house nearby for help and was taken to a hospital.
Investigators say the teens were returning to the scene of an earlier crime. The week before the woman was raped, her house was broken into while she slept and the burglars stole a flashlight, some food and the woman’s red Pontiac Sunfire, which was later recovered.
