Six men are under arrest in connection to a West Philadelphia rape that happened late Thursday night.
The suspects in the case range in age from 16-to-52. The 24-year-old victim tells police the men attacked her inside the Li Lai Chinese restaurant on Walnut Street in West Philadelphia.
Philadelphia police Lieutenant Frank Vanore:
"At some point they began to assault her inside the store, and then drug her from the store into a first floor apartment on the 5600 block of Walnut."
Neighbors called 911 when they heard the woman screaming.
Investigators say the men tried to run, but police were able to track them down.
Authorities say an investigation shows all six of the men took part in the attack.
They're facing several charges including rape, and aggravated assault.
