GLENDALE, Calif. (WJW) An Amazon delivery driver has been charged after allegedly sexually assaulting a woman and a girl in the Los Angeles area in two separate instances, Glendale police said in a statement.
The assaults reportedly took place while the suspect was on the job.
Now, police are asking for any other “potential” victims of the accused, 24-year-old Fernando Barreto-Hernandez, to come forward.
Barreto-Hernandez was first arrested on Jan. 24 for the assault on the girl in December, police said in a statement. When he appeared in court the next month, he was also arrested for the assault on the woman.
For the two cases, the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office “filed a combination of felony and misdemeanor charges,” police said.
The Los Angeles Times clarified the suspect was charged “with lewd or lascivious acts with a child under 14 years old and touching a person against their will for sexual arousal.”
Barreto-Hernandez is out of jail on bond, police said, and he has pleaded not guilty. He reportedly worked for the following companies as a delivery driver: Amazon, Amazon Flex and FedEx.
An investigation is still ongoing.
