(AP) — Authorities say four teenagers at a Florida school have been charged with assaulting another member of a flag football team attacked with a broomstick and a hockey stick. The Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office said Friday that a 13-year-old was assaulted. It says the attack occurred April 30 at Walker Middle School in Odessa. The sheriff's office says two teens held down the boy while the two others assaulted him. The office added in an e-mailed statement that the four students were charged with sexual battery and false imprisonment. The Associated Press does not identify victims of sexual assault. A sheriff's official says the victim had been picked on continually since mid-March.
