BOULDER, Colo. (AP) -- Detectives used profiles posted on the MySpace social networking Web site to identify six suspects in a rape and robbery that began when a party turned violent, leaving blood "in almost every room of the house," officials said.
Six men were arrested in connection with the Feb. 23 rampage, and a seventh suspect was being sought, Detective Ali Bartley said Friday.
The victim, whose name was withheld, became acquainted with the suspects through MySpace, authorities said.
The group met for a party. "At some point, the victim was no longer aware of what was happening, and she was sexually assaulted," Bartley said.
Police used her friends list to help identify suspects, she said.
The men face charges ranging from sexual assault to felony theft.
