Four Bixby football players accused of sexually assaulting a fellow teammate are already out of jail after turning themselves in overnight.

Prosecutors charged the four with one count each of rape by instrumentation. And now, one of those teens is also being accused of sexually assaulting another boy.

They say 17-year old Samuel Lakin, 16-year old Joe Wood, 17-year old William Thomas and 17-year old Colton Cable are being charged as youthful offenders after court documents say they admitted to the assault. 

Lakin was arraigned Wednesday night after posting a $25,000 bond. Wood, Thomas and Cable will go before a judge Thursday, March 8, 2017.
