Two Montana men have been indicted on charges that they kidnapped two women at knifepoint and raped them repeatedly on the Northern Cheyenne Reservation.
The men are being held in federal custody on charges of kidnapping and aggravated sexual abuse.
Daniel Curtis Bigman, 19, and Patrick Doyle, 20, pleaded not guilty to the indictment.
Federal authorities allege Bigman and Doyle kidnapped the women in Billings and forced them into a car trunk. The women were then raped repeatedly after being taken to the reservation, authorities say.
