The victims had been playing at the park with their families and were resting on a park bench when a family friend, 58-year-old Paublo Vargas Ramirez, Sr., who was also sitting on the bench, began to fondle the girls over and underneath their clothes. The girls walked away and continued to play in the park. The suspect later walked over to where the girls were playing and exposed himself to them and then later forced his hand inside the underwear of the 8-year-old victim. When the girls returned home that night, they told their parents what had happened, who in turn called the Sheriff's Office.
Vargas Ramirez was arrested and booked into County Jail on several counts of lewd or lascivious acts with a child under 14 years old and one count of lewd or lascivious acts with a child under 14 by force, all felonies.
