Man Accused Of Sexually Assaulting Deaf Girl Sought - Most Popular News Story - KNSD | San Diego

A man accused of sexually assaulting a deaf girl in Riverside County is being sought by sheriff's deputies.

According to Officer Jerry Franchville, the alleged assault took place on April 12 in the city of Lake Elsinore around 10 p.m.

A 16-year-old girl told authorities she was attacked by a man who agreed to give her a ride to San Diego. According to Franchville, the teen met the man, who identified himself as Marcos, outside of a gas station off Interstate 15 in the city of Corona.

"She's deaf but she can read lips," Detective Joe Greco said. The man spoke Spanish according to officials.

The suspect drove the girl to another gas station at Nichols Road and Collier Avenue in Lake Elsinore. He was captured on surveillance video going into the store with the victim and purchasing some items.

Investigators said from there, the man drove the victim to a business center parking lot on the east side of I-15 and Baxter Road, and sexually assaulted her. While in the man's car, the victim told officials she saw "numerous photos of children" in plain sight. Following the assault, the man drove the victim to a home in San Diego and dropped her off.

The victim told officials that Marcos told her he was a mechanic and officials believe he may still be in San Diego. He was driving a dark blue compact sedan. Authorities describe the man as dangerous.

Anyone who may recognize the man or has any information about this incident or his whereabouts is asked to call Detective Joe Greco with the Lake Elsinore Police Department at 951-245-3395.

The suspect could face charges of kidnapping and rape, officials said.
