Men arrested for alleged rape, kidnap

Two men have been arrested for an alleged kidnapping and rape in Hungry Horse Sunday night.

Flathead County Sheriff Mike Meehan said that 911 dispatchers received a call at about 10:45 p.m. Sunday from a woman who said she had been kidnapped and raped.

She said she was walking home from the Dam Town Tavern when she was approached by three men in a brown and tan truck. They allegedly forced her into the truck and drove her to a remote location where two of the men assaulted her.

Her cries for help were heard by a neighbor who threatened to call 911. The victim was then able to escape.

Following the call, a sheriff’s deputy saw a truck that matched the description traveling west on U.S. Highway 2 towards Columbia Falls.

Sheriff’s deputies arrested Kasey D. Kehoe, 27, who was alone in the truck. He was arrested on charges of sexual intercourse without consent, aggravated kidnapping and criminal contempt.

Deputies later arrested a second man, whose name has not been released.

The case is still under investigation and authorities are searching for the third man in the truck during in the alleged assault.
