Alleged Army Deserter Suspected of Molestation
A 20-year-old soldier wanted for alleged desertion from the Army was arrested on suspicion of molestation late Tuesday night, when a Fairmount Park security guard saw the man kissing a 13-year-old girl inside a parked vehicle, police said.
Police said Andy Leon, 20, of Riverside met the girl on the MySpace website and that they agreed to meet in person at the Riverside park.
“A lot of law enforcement agencies are keeping an eye on MySpace now,” Riverside police spokesman Steve Frasher said.
