Alleged 'Vampire' Faces Sex Charges In Indiana

INDIANAPOLIS -- A teenager has been charged with multiple counts of sexual misconduct with a minor and sexual battery against two female victims, Indianapolis television station WRTV reported.

The unusual part of the alleged crimes is that Steven Rogers, 18, allegedly told the victims he was a vampire, police said. Investigators added that Rogers told female victims that he also worships Satan.

There are no allegations that he tried to suck the victims' blood, but police said he bit and bruised their necks.

Rogers denied the allegations, WRTV reported.

"It was something I got into when I was in sixth grade and I got out of it in eighth grade," Rogers said. "I stopped doing it in the eighth grade. I realized it was stupid."

Stupid or not, court documents said that one of the attacks occurred last month at the Oakridge Manor mobile home park.

The alleged attack was against a 15-year-old girl, police said.

"He had made statements to the girls in reference to him being a vampire," Lawrence police Sgt. Matthew Miller said. "It led to injuries to the girls' necks and subsequently some sexual assault to each girl."
