MENOMONIE, Wis. (AP) -- Two men are expected to appear for a bond hearing in Dunn County Circuit Court Tuesday after being accused of holding a woman against her will and sexually assaulting her.

At least one of the men held SWAT team officers at bay Sunday night for four hours as authorities attempted to arrest the two at a town of Sand Creek home where the assault allegedly occurred. Eventually both were arrested.

The woman told investigators she met the two men at a Chippewa County bar and went to the home of one of the men.
