An illegal alien was arrested in Summerdale recently on child sex charges.

According to WKRG, Mario Rosas-Jeranimo was arrested and charged with four counts of child sex-fondling and one count of sodomy.

Two children reportedly told the Summerdale Police Department that they had been inappropriately touched earlier in the week. An investigation into Rosas-Jeranimo began after the Summerdale Police Department turned the information over to the Baldwin County Sheriff’s Office.

The Baldwin County Sheriff’s Office arrested Rosas-Jeranimo on Thursday and said he confessed to the crimes, according to WKRG.

Rosas-Jeranimo was given an $804,000 bond.
