HESPERIA (CBSLA.com) — Two members of a Victorville church, one of them a youth pastor, have been arrested on suspicion of having sexual relationships with two teenage girls and authorities believe they may have more victims.
Victor Callejas-Vargas, 22, and Jesse Rodolfo Rios, 19, both of Hesperia, are scheduled to be arraigned Wednesday on several sex charges involving a minor, according to San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department officials.
Victorville Police launched an investigation on Sept. 9 after receiving a report of a possible inappropriate sexual relationship between a 14-year-old girl and two men, San Bernardino County sheriff’s officials said. The investigation led detectives to a second victim, a 17-year-old girl, and to the suspects, all of whom are members of Centro Cristiano de Fe Church in Victorville.
Callejas-Vargas is also an employee and youth pastor of the church, officials said.
