PICO RIVERA (CBS) — Sheriff’s detectives Sunday were searching for a suspect in an alleged sexual assault at a park in Pico Rivera.

 

According to authorities, the victim, identified as a 6-year-old boy, reported the incident about 2:35 p.m. Saturday after a soccer match at Rio Hondo Park.

“He went into the bathroom alone, and was sexually molested by the white man with tattoos on his neck and one arm,” sheriff’s Lt. Robert Smith of the Pico Riviera Station said.

Witnesses told a local television news station that after the incident, the man walked the crying child out to his mother, handed him over and then fled in a white van with a partial license beginning with “6J.”

The suspect was described by witnesses as about 6’2, weighing approximately 200 pounds with blond hair and blue eyes. He was last seen wearing a bandanna on his head with a Mexican Flag on it.

Anyone with more information is asked to contact the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, Special Victims Bureau at (877) 710-LASD or “Crime Stoppers” at (800) 222-TIPS to remain anonymous.

    How do you let a small child go to the bathroom alone ? The parents must have been real busy !

    • Nancy Mallett

      If you had a child you’d know that at the age of 6 is kind of iffy, whether or not you should take them to the ladies room or men’s room. But aside from that, how about instead of blaming the mother for not walking her little boy into the girl’s room, you blame the psycho that did it! What has our world come to where you can’t let a 6 yr old boy go to the bathroom by himself? It’s insane!!

  • Jason

    I can already picture the guys in prison sharpening their shanks for this guy.

  • VILLARAGOSA

    a white man with a lousy mexican flag on his head ?…something is not right here.

  • Julie

    Who lets a baby out of their site to wander around a park?

    • George

      Idiot, the article says he went into the bathroom alone, not that he was wondering around alone.

    • Jeezus

      d’oh….if mexicans weren’t so bent on coming here and then converting us to mexican ways, all that mexican pride-it’s fine but keep it to yourself, and waving the mexican flag on july 4th in america…ummm….ya….exactly. Those are signs of a people in conquer mode. Not in assimilate and advance the existing country mode. That’s conquer mode.

  • Truth

    I would think a white buy around a soccer match at a park in Pico Rivera would stick out like a sore thumb. Were the parents not curious about a white man with a Mexican flag bandana returning their crying child to them? I first blame them for letting the child go alone to the bathroom. Second, for not having any intuition. Lastly, I hope police catch this loser so he can get his justice by the hands of other prisoners.

    • Truth

      I meant white guy.

    • MIC

      Plenty of white people in pico Rivera.

  • George

    A lot of you people here are missing the real tragedy. I agree, the little boy should have accompanied to the bathroom but the crime was committed by the man. The parents of the little boy made a big mistake, but the dude who molested him should die.

  • John

    He brought the crying child back to its mother. Oh, how considerate.

  • George

    The mother, father and or the witnesses should have questioned the guy about why the boy was crying. I don’t care how big he is. Someone should have done something. If someone so much as brushes up, against, or by my children and they appear bothered by it in any way, I start asking questions. I don’t care who the hell they are or how big. Grow some balls people!

  • jaybee

    Come on – Where’s your detective spirit. The Culprit is probably the father or the Uncle of a smaller boy this kid was picking on during the soccer match. What city was this in? WHO were the participants in the soccer match if you understand me? C’mon haven’t you learned anything observing this bunch all these decades?

    • Sanityforus

      That has GOT to be the MOST idiotic response I’ve seen here so far, You take the cake buddy !!

    • Jeezus

      idiotic? i’d say the most thought out response atleast. Everyone jumps on this or that bandwagon when the media reports it as so…..grow some thought and dont just take what the media gives us as sound information. The media wants us to fight each other and that’s the long and short of it. Keep us distracted and fighting for a nothing cause and we’ll be easier to control accordingly. How about we all just get along? Because it’s not each other we should be scared of, it’s the ones controlling us into this unwarranted warring.

    All you racist people a t like white people don’t take their eyes off their kids. We all make mistakes the kids pay for. Just like your kids will pay someday for their racist upbringing. Your the type of people who witness crimes and turn their head because you don’t think it will ever affect you.

    • jennesey

      i so agree with you

  • Monalsa Liz-ardo

    You suppose to take a 6.y.o. to the women’s restroom. I don’t think other women would mind when the kid is that young.The places like Starbuck has only one unisex restroom. I would take the kid in with me when I need to go.Never let your guards down for your kids, the vultures are always waiting for your mistakes.

  • Imc

    Could we get the license plate the next time ? shame on you parents for not protecting your child ! He will have to live with that for the rest of his life !

  • 1944victoriam

    Years ago a Grandmother waited outside while her little Grandson went alone into the Men’s bathroom at a campground. He never came out. Someone inside stabbed him to death. Now that I am a Grandmother I just make my Grandson come in the Lady’s bathroom with me. I don’t care what people think….I don’t want him alone in ANY public restroom. Poor kid, I hope he gets some counseling and i really hope they find the jerk/criminal soon!

  • Sun

    • JohnWayne

      Swam or walked? who cares as they are still illegals that we don’t want! Why so much attention on illegals as this is the 4th of July, a holiday for REAL AMERICANS and not 2nd class citizens like anchor babies! Their kind are simply not wanted here and the faster they learn than and go back to Mexico, the better!

      • ABP

        JohnWayne,

    No one of any race, creed, intellect or upbringinging of any human or spiritual worth would want to associate w/you let alone procreate of free will. Insecurity is a weakness all DNA breeds out so consider yourself extinct.

      The bottom line is, ANY parent with common sense knows to GO INTO THE BATHROOM WITH A 6 year old. Mom should be prosecuted for neglect, plain and simple. She played a part in what happened to her son. Period. End of story.
