ADELANTO, Calif. (KABC) -- San Bernardino County sheriff's deputies are searching for two men who allegedly abducted and raped a 15-year-old girl as she walked to Adelanto High School on Wednesday.

The victim told investigators she was walking near the intersection of Mojave Drive and Jonathan Street at about 7:45 a.m. when two men pulled up alongside her in a car.

She says the passenger got out of the vehicle, grabbed her, placed her in the backseat and drove to another location. The driver parked on the side of the road and both men allegedly raped her in the vehicle.

The suspects then dropped her off at school. The victim waited until Thursday to report the crime.

Adelanto High School parents say the school notified them about the incident shortly before pickup on Friday.

Both suspects were described as black males in their 20s. The first suspect is 6 feet 3 inches tall with a heavy build, short black hair and a black ink tattoo of a tiger's head and a paw on his chest. He allegedly has facial hair on his chin and jaw, a big nose with flared nostrils and a deep voice.

The second suspect was described as a caramel-colored man of medium height and build with short dreadlocks, sheriff's deputies said.

They were seen driving an older-model, teal, four-door Toyota with tan upholstery.

Anyone with additional information on this case was asked to contact Sgt. Dan Babel at (760) 552-6800 or the WeTip Hotline at (800) 78-CRIME.
