GRAPEVINE — Grapevine police are investigating reports that a 13-year-old girl was assaulted at the home of a friend in the 4100 block of Harvest Glen Court.
Police said the parents of the alleged victim called them on Saturday evening to report the assault, which include statements that the girl had been bound with duct tape and shocked with a hand-held Tazer gun.
The parents of the unnamed girl told police they had let their daughter sleep over at the friend's house on Friday night. The parents allege that their daughter and other teens at the house were permitted to drink beer that was provided by the friend's family.
Police said they were told that the 13-year-old became intoxicated, loud, and out of control. It is alleged that some of the teens used duct tape to bind her and to tape her mouth shut. The alleged victim also said she passed out several times and was dragged around by her legs and pulled down a flight of stairs.
A teenage boy at the house allegedly used a Tazer to assault the girl multiple times.
Detectives executed a search warrant at the address on Saturday night to collect evidence related to the case.
Police said numerous criminal charges were possible and that the case remained under investigation.
