Charges of an alleged sexual assault on a minor have been declined for filing by the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office.
A 34-year-old Valencia resident was arrested in July for a lewd act on a child under the age of 14, but charges were declined to be filed due to insufficient evidence, according to a spokesperson for the District Attorney’s Office.
At around 4 a.m. on July 5, officials with the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station responded to the 24000 block of Trevino Drive in Valencia, according to Lt. Ruiz with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department’s Special Victims Bureau.
“The victim was not able to give consent,” Ruiz said in a previous story.

The suspect was transported to the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station jail, where he was booked on one felony charge under California Penal Code 289(B).
While officials were unable to give details regarding the initial call for service due to the sensitivity of the incident, one Valencia resident was taken into custody at 5:40 a.m. for an alleged instance of forced “penetration with a foreign object.”
The incident was investigated by the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department Special Victims Bureau.
