Ventura County Man Accused Of Child Molestation; Detectives Say There Are At Least Three Victims

Police say they've arrested a Ventura County man who molested multiple children, some as young as four years old.

Oxnard Police detectives learned about the possible crimes two weeks ago.

They say they discovered that Francisco Tellez Mejia molested three girls over a more than decade long period.  Investigators say the victims ranged for four to ten years old.

The Ventura County District Attorney's Office has filed 12 separate sexual assault charges against the Camarillo man.   Detectives say they are looking for more potential victims of the 63 year old man.
