A group of volunteer firefighters arrested in April in connection with an alleged sexual assault have been indicted by the Ellis County Grand Jury.
A man — whose identity was not released because he is a sexual assault victim — filed a complaint March 31 stating that five fellow firefighters held him down at the Emergency Service District No. 6 fire station, pulled his pants down and, while laughing and yelling, sexually assaulted him multiple times with a sausage and broom handle on Jan. 20.
