Rolando Fuentes, 53, is facing a variety of charges, including rape and lewd acts with a minor, Sgt. Shane Carringer of the Anaheim Police Department said during a news conference Friday. All of the alleged victims are female, he said.
Fuentes was arrested Thursday night at his Anaheim home and is in custody, Carringer said. He is being held in lieu of $1-million bail.
