A second sexual assault has been reported at Island Coast High School in Cape Coral.

The victim told officials it happened in September, but out of fear, she didn't come forward until Friday.

This is the second sexual assault reported at the school in the last week.

The Lee County Sheriff's Office incident report said an 18-year-old boy started sending the victim vulgar text messages. Five days later, she agreed to meet with him after school on school property.

The report said they waited for adults to leave the area before the boy demanded she undress. She told officials she eventually listened because she was scared. She said the boy then sexually assaulted her.

On Tuesday, another girl reported she was sexually assaulted by a male student during class. The pair somehow ended up alone together, and that's when the boy exposed himself, pulled her by the hair, and forced himself on her.
