Teen boy accused of raping, burglarizing woman in Morgan Hill

Morgan Hill police arrested three juveniles in the rape and burglary of a 40-year-old woman on Saturday, a police captain said.

The incident happened after the woman had been drinking at a local establishment and called a taxi to take her home, Capt. Shane Palsgrove said.

The taxi driver enlisted assistance from a mother and teenage son to help him take the woman inside her house, Palsgrove said.

Later that evening the 16-year-old son returned to the woman's residence and allegedly raped her, Palsgrove said.

The boy then left the woman's home and returned with his 15-year-old girlfriend and her friend, who all burglarized the victim, according to Palsgrove.

Officers later recovered the stolen property at the male juvenile's home, police said.

The three juveniles were arrested on suspicion of residential burglary, conspiracy and violation of juvenile probation, according to Palsgrove.
