Overview
- The Jalisco prosecutor's office arrested Luis Antonio “N” on Monday, May 11, after an operation that found him inside a rehabilitation center in Tetlán.
- The case opened when a May 7 security video from a grocery in Santa Elena de la Cruz showed a man touching a young girl and spread through neighborhood chats and social media.
- Officials said intelligence work identified the suspect and a judge issued an arrest warrant, which officers executed during two court-ordered searches, and he was placed before judicial authorities on child sexual abuse charges.
- Responding to online doubts about a lookalike, Governor Pablo Lemus said Tuesday the detainee is the same man seen in the video and that he was moved to the Puente Grande complex to appear before a judge.
- City victim-support teams provided psychological care to the child and guided her family through the complaint process, a standard response in cases involving children and gender-based violence.
