Two teenagers accused in a robbery and sexual assault of a woman in a New York hospital parking lot have been indicted on several charges.
Brandon R Corey, 16, of Johnson City and Jacob R Coish, 17, of Binghamton face adult prosecution after they were handed multiple felony indictments on Friday, the
Press and Sun-Bulletin reported.
Corey is accused of following a female UHS Wilson Memorial Hospital employee to her car just after midnight on April 14 before allegedly sexually assaulting her.
Police said the woman was walking to her car just before 1am when the suspect approached her, showed her a knife and attempted to rob her.
He then raped her and stole her car and cellphone before fleeing the scene, the Press and Sun-Bulletin reported.
The car was later found in Binghamton's west side where investigators said the driver abandoned it after crashing it on Main Street.
Two days later on April 16, Corey was arrested after an extensive investigation and pursuit of several leads, police said.
On Friday, he was indicted on seven counts including first-degree rape, first-degree robbery, first-degree sexual abuse and criminal mischief.
Days later on April 18, officers identified Coish as a second suspect who they said reportedly participated in the theft of the victim's vehicle with Corey.
Coish was indicted on three counts including first-degree robbery on Friday.
