GREEN LAKE COUNTY (NBC 26) -- There is new information in a Green Lake County sexual assault investigation.
Six people, who were arrested earlier this month, have now been charged. They're accused of forcing the same underage girl to have sex in the same house. Officials say she then escaped and was found by a sheriff's deputy.
According to criminal complaints filed this week, a 17-year-old victim describes being forced or threatened into having sex with all six suspects within the span of just a few days in November.
Those suspects are all now facing a charge of sexual assault and a charge of child enticement.
In the criminal complaint, the victim said the men lived in the same house in the Town of Manchester. The Green Lake County Sheriff's Office previously said they are all believed to be undocumented immigrants from Guatemala.
The sheriff also said the victim escaped from the home and was found by a deputy. She provided information that got this investigation started. When deputies responded to the house, they spoke with several of the men.
According to the complaint, some of the suspects told law enforcement they paid for the sex, or thought she was in her twenties, and said they thought the victim was in a relationship with one of the suspects. They were all later arrested.
They're scheduled to appear in Green Lake County court for an initial appearance in early January.
