Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy has charged two cousins in the rape and kidnapping of a woman in Lincoln Park last week.

Fernando DeLon Anderson, 24, from Detroit, and 19-year-old Fernando Delon Anderson IV have been charged with three counts of First Degree Criminal Sexual Conduct, Robbery, Kidnapping and Felony Firearm. The 24-year-old Anderson has also been charged with Felon in Possession of a Firearm.

According to police, both men approached the 23-year-old Detroit woman while she was in her car with a gun and got inside. Then, police say they told her to drive to a dead end street in Detroit while the 24-year-old Anderson held her at gunpoint and gave her instructions.

Police say both men sexually assaulted her, and then made her drive back to Lincoln Park, took her cell phone and left the area.

Both are expected to be arraigned in 25th District Court on Friday morning.
