Madison Police arrested a 26-year-old Madison man Friday who has been charged with sexually assaulting a 12-year-old girl he met on Facebook.
The suspect, Gustavo Garcia-Aguirre, faces charges of first-degree child sexual assault and use of a computer to facilitate a child sex crime, according to a police report.
Garcia-Aguirre met the victim outside of her home on MacArthur Road Nov. 9, police said. The victim got into the suspect's car and they drove to a nearby parking lot where they went into the backseat of the man's car.
""At some point, a concerned friend of the girl's mother went looking for the 12-year-old and found her in the car,"" Madison Police Department spokesperson Joel DeSpain said in a statement. ""The windows were completely fogged up.""
The victim told police there had been sexual contact, but Garcia-Aguirre denied the claim.
The 12-year-old ""friended"" the 26-year-old man on Facebook two months ago because the victim said ""he seemed cool,"" police said. They sent messages back and forth before starting to talk on the telephone.
Police are still investigating the case.
