Police arrested 24-year-old Ernesto Miguel-Juan on three felony counts of child molesting. He is being held in the Jackson County Jail in Brownstown without bail.

Seymour Police began their investigation on June 30th after the boy was taken to Schneck Medical Center after complaining of pain.

An MRI revealed evidence that the boy had been sexually abused.

The boy was interviewed on July 6th at Susie's Place in Bloomington, where he detailed multiple incidents of sexual abuse.

Police interviewed Miguel-Juan on July 27th and he denied the allegations. He says if anything the boy was the one that tried to touch and hug him during encounters between the two.
