BG rape suspect arrested in Texas to face judge in Wood County, reward offered for two others

One of four suspects charged in connection to a rape case involving two teenagers in Bowling Green has been extradited from Texas to Ohio.

U.S. Marshals arrested David Ramos Contreras earlier this month in Lubbock, Texas. Bowling Green police tell 13abc Contreras is set to be arraigned on Friday.

The search continues for two additional suspects, Juan Adiel and Arnulfo Ramos. Authorities say the suspects may be in this country illegally and police are using what little they have to go on. Investigators tell us most of the paperwork and documents they've received from this group has turned out to be bogus.

Bowling Green police did arrest Simon Juan in connection with the crime. Now they shift their focus to the other two. Investigators do know what hotel they were staying in but that's about it.

The incident is alleged to have happened at the Days Inn on Wooster Street in Bowling Green, where two teens were staying with their mom. Police believe the teens made contact at some point with the 4 men,.

"The information we're receiving is the suspects were living at the Days Inn as well as our victims," said Major Justin White of the Bowling Green police department.

Investigators did speak with all four suspects early in their investigation but at that time the victims were still speaking Wood County Job and Family Services.

"When we went over there that night, at that point in time we hadn't vetted or spoken with the victims yet," said Major White.

Investigators were shown some paperwork by the suspects proving their work status. But it’s believed those papers were bogus.

"They were up here working. They had papers to be up here to work however we believe their paperwork, at this time, is fraudulent,” said Major White.

Adiel, for example, provided a permanent resident ID card that was later proven to be a fraud. The Bowling Green police focus was on the assault against the girls not papers or status.

"They're providing us with information and at that point in time we have to have probable cause," said Major White. “Just because we may suspect them of not supposed to be in this country, we are investigating an alleged sexual assault not their immigration status."

Police do know now that one of them should not have been in this country. According to Bowling Green police David Ramos Contreras was deported in October of 2017.

Police don't believe there was any connection between the victims and the suspects other than they were all staying at the hotel.

Bowling green police also identified two women seen with the seen with David Ramos Contreras on Saturday (6/30/2018) at approximately 2pm, at the WalMart located at the Spring Meadows Shopping Center in Holland. Investigators say the two females are not suspects in any crime related to the current investigation.
