Day-care provider charged in molestation

A day-care provider in the Del Aire Hollyglen unincorporated county area near Hawthorne is charged today for allegedly molesting a 6-year-old child.

Tito Ruiz, 65, was charged in Torrance Superior Court on five counts of committing lewd and lascivious acts on a child, according to Deputy District Attorney Jodi Link. Ruiz posted $100,000 bail, and was released from custody. His arraignment date is unknown.

Ruiz and his wife operated Ruiz Family Daycare in the 4900 block of West 133rd Street, Link said.

No information was available about the facility from the state's Department of Social Services, which overseas licensing for day-care providers.

Ruiz was arrested Monday.

If convicted of all the counts, Ruiz could face up to 16 years in prison, according to Link.

Link declined to comment further about the case or the allegations.
