Phoenix police have made an arrest in connection with a string of sexual attacks or attempted sexual attacks on girls in west-central Phoenix.
The 28-year-old suspect, Robert Jesse Payan, had been under surveillance since Wednesday and was taken into custody Sunday night at his central Phoenix apartment complex.
Police had been looking for a suspect in connection with 13 attacks or attempted attacks on girls since January, but Payan is being held at this time in only three of the cases. (See pictured police sketches)
The attacks, targeting girls 7 to 17, began in January.
Police had said earlier that nine of the girls had been sexually abused.
