FROM STAFF REPORTS

A Yuma man has been charged with three felonies after being arrested on suspicion of having sex with a minor.

Abraham Rodriguez has been charged with one count each of kidnapping, sexual conduct with a minor and sexual assault, the Yuma County Sheriff's Office said.

He was arrested after the sheriff's office responded Friday night to a report of sexual assault and indecent exposure in the 3800 block of West 3rd Place, the sheriff's office said.

Rodriguez was booked into the Yuma County jail after a followup investigation found he had had sexual contact with a minor, the sheriff's office said.

No other details were immediately available.
