Two men and a juvenile reportedly drove from Phoenix to upstate New York to kidnap and assault a woman.

The Brighton Police Department, outside of Rochester, New York, said 23-year-old Andy Nano, 20-year-old Mohammed Al-Harbi, and a 17-year-old male were arrested Thursday.

The trio is accused of driving a rental car from Phoenix to Rochester to kidnap and assault a woman they know. The trip is 2,267 miles, which would take approximately 33 hours. 

The victim was taken Wednesday at Monroe Community College in Rochester as she was walking in the parking lot after class.

Police said she was pushed into their rental car and taken to a motel in nearby Gates, New York, where she was assaulted. 

The victim was later treated and released from the University of Rochester Medical Center. 

Details of the arrest have not been released at this time.

Nano, Al-Harbi and the juvenile suspect have all been arraigned and are being held on $100,000 cash bonds.

Police say there may be additional charges.
