A man was held down and forced to watch as migrants who smashed into his car raped his 18-year-old fiancée in Italy, according to police in Rome.
The couple, said to have been naked prior to the incident, had parked in a quiet corner of Tor Tre Teste, a park in the eastern part of the capital, minutes before they were surrounded by the group who attacked their vehicle.
Police said the attackers broke the window and first pulled the man, 24, from the car before forcing the woman out as she tried to cover herself with an item of clothing.
The man told cops he was restrained by two of the attackers as his fiancée was dragged a short distance away.
As she was sexually assaulted, he screamed for help, begged them to stop and even threatened revenge, but was unable to break free.
After the attack, all three perpetrators fled the scene. The couple, both Italian, then contracted police and filed a report.
Officers have since arrested three Moroccan men on charges of gang rape and robbery.

Justice Secretary David Lammy is proposing to massively restrict the ancient right to a jury trial by only guaranteeing it for defendants facing rape, murder, manslaughter or other cases passing a public interest test.
An internal government briefing, produced by the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) for all other Whitehall departments, confirms plans to create a new tier of jury-less courts in England and Wales.
The new courts would deal with most crimes currently considered by juries in Crown Court.
But the MoJ said no final decision had been taken by the government.
The plans show that Lammy, who is also deputy prime minister, wants to ask Parliament to end jury trials for defendants who would be jailed for up to five years.

Mayors will be able to introduce tourist taxes across England, the government has announced.
A day before the budget, communities secretary Steve Reed said mayors will be given the power to impose a "modest" charge on visitors staying overnight in hotels, bed and breakfasts, guest houses and holiday lets.
The money raised is intended to be invested in local transport, infrastructure and the visitor economy to potentially attract more tourists.
Regional Labour leaders such as London Mayor Sir Sadiq Khan and Greater Manchester's Andy Burnham have been calling for the measure.
However, the hospitality industry condemned the move as "damaging".

Australia's landmark social media ban for children is being challenged in the nation's highest court, with two teenagers alleging the law is unconstitutional as it robs them of their right to free communication.
15-year-olds Noah Jones and Macy Neyland - backed by a rights group - will argue the ban completely disregards the rights of children.
"We shouldn't be silenced. It's like Orwell's book 1984, and that scares me," Macy Neyland said in a statement.
