17 Year Old Charged with Child Molestation
In Phoenix, police recently arrested a 17-year-old on suspicion of child molestation. It is reported that the teenager molested an eight-year-old girl near 79th Avenue and Indian School Road.
At about 10:30 p.m., the guardian of the-year-old entered her room and saw the 17-year-old in the child's presence. At first, the teenager tried to hide under the child's sheets, but then fled out of the same window that police believe he came into the room through.
Police were able to arrest the 17-year-old as he climbed back into his own residence later that evening.
