GOLDSBORO, N.C. — Goldsboro police arrested two men Saturday after a mother said she caught the men in bed with her 14-year-old daughter.

Officers responded to East Walnut Street shortly before 1 a.m. and saw the teenager running from the house with her mother chasing after her.

The teenager, whose name was not released, admitted to having sex with one of the men, police said. Officers found both men still inside the house and arrested them.
