According to the Jerome County Sheriffs Office earlier this year acts of rape occurred against a minor in the county.

As a result a suspect 34 year old Hector Guerrero-Castillo was charged with multiple acts of lewd and lascivious conduct against a minor.

In late September a warrant was issued and an arrest occurred. However Guerrero-Castillo bonded out on the charge.

Last Thursday the 14 year old victim was reported missing. Investigation revealed that Guerrero-Castillo was also missing and a warrant was issued charging him with kidnapping.

The investigation is ongoing and anyone with any information is urged to contact Jocelyne Nunnally of the Jerome County Sheriffs Office at 644 2770.
