Parolee accused of three molestations

A 28-year-old parolee suspected of child molestation was arrested by Merced County Sheriff's investigators earlier this month, after deputies received a tip about the alleged abuse from Child Protective Services.

Anthony Giron is accused of inappropriately touching three girls on separate occasions while they were sleeping, said Tom MacKenzie, sheriff's spokesman. MacKenzie said the allegations came to light May 13 after the sheriff's department received a tip that Giron was molesting an 11-year-old girl.

Detective Alex Barba interviewed Giron and placed him under arrest. Giron was on parole for narcotics violations
