"A 26-year-old man is scheduled to be arraigned Friday after being ordered to stand trial on charges that he sexually assaulted a 5-year-old girl in the parking lot of a Panorama City shopping center last year, according to Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office.
Jorge Enrique Lopez-Maza is seen in a photo released by LAPD on April 25, 2017.
Jorge Enrique Lopez-Maza, of Van Nuys, has been charged with one count each of kidnapping to commit a lewd act on a child and lewd act upon a child, prosecutors said.
“The felony information … includes allegations that the victim was under the age of 14 and the defendant kidnapped the victim and the movement of the victim substantially increased the risk of harm to the victim,” a DA’s news release stated.
Witness testimony at a preliminary hearing indicated that on April 21, 2016, the child was at the Panorama Mall with her grandmother when the pair became separated. The lost little girl was then approached by Lopez-Maza, who allegedly convinced her to go with him and look for the child’s grandmother." (
