Illinois men accused of sexually assaulting New Mexico girl

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) - Authorities say two Illinois men have been arrested for allegedly sexually assaulting a girl when she lived in New Mexico.

New Mexico State Police say 24-year-old Robert Hull and 31-year-old Bryan Huber were taken into custody in Loves Park, Illinois by the U.S. Marshals Service.

State Police say they received a report last June from an officer with the Albany, Oregon Police Department about a journal written by an alleged victim, who was 14 at the time.

The victim allegedly wrote in the journal details about how she was sexually assaulted when she lived in New Mexico.

The journal's discovery led to a multi-state investigation.

Police say Huber and Hull both are accused of criminal sexual contact of a minor.

It was unclear Friday if either man has a lawyer.
