Officials at the 15th Circuit Solicitor's office confirmed Wednesday that the office has dropped all charges against three Pennsylvania men accused of kidnapping and sexually assaulting a woman at Broadway at the Beach on June 30.

The charges against Dallas Bubba Frutchey, 19, Troy Terell Wilson, 31 and Robert George Toma, 39, all of Easton, Pa., have been dropped, said solicitor's office victims' advocate Amy Ayars. She said the official paperwork has not been filed and she could not comment further.

The men were facing the charges after a 23-year-old Myrtle Beach woman said the three men had forced her into a van in the parking lot of Broadway at the Beach on June 30.

The woman said while she was waiting for her sister in front of the business, Frutchey demanded that she leave with him, grabbed her arm and yanked her to a van in the parking lot, police said. She told police that inside the van the men sexually assaulted her before she was able to get away.

The woman gave police a description of the van, and North Myrtle Beach police stopped the vehicle, which also had two other men inside, police said. The men were identified and arrested.
