A 39-year-old man wanted on suspicion of child molestation in Minnesota was arrested Saturday in Ventura after police received a tip that the suspect was living on the city’s west side.
After his arrest at a residence on East McFarlane Street, Carlo Fortuna also was identified as a suspect in a second molestation case involving a young Ventura boy.
Fortuna was booked into County Jail on the felony warrant issued last April in Cottonwood County, Minn., and in connection with the alleged Ventura molestation. He was held in lieu of $50,000 bail.
