An Arizona man has been charged with sexually assaulting his roommate’s 6-year-old daughter after she ended up with an STD.
Jacob Sullivan, 26, was arrested on Tuesday over the sick attack on the little girl, the Pinal County Sheriff’s Office said.
Authorities said they were alerted to the case last month after being called to an urgent care clinic in Queen Creek, just outside Phoenix, when the child tested positive for the disease.
The girl told investigators that Sullivan, who was her father’s roommate, had sexually assaulted her.
“Getting this sexual predator off the streets was our number one priority,” Sheriff Mark Lamb said in the wake of Sullivan’s arrest.
“I am pleased with our detectives for making quick work of this suspect.”
