HIGH POINT — A man wanted in connection with the 2001 sexual assault of a child in Nevada was arrested on Saturday, High Point police said in a news release.
On Friday, authorities determined 40-year-old Eric Santibanez-Cardenas was using the alias Julian Solis-Cardenas and had been on the run from law enforcement for over 20 years, according to police.
Santibanez-Cardenas was wanted in Las Vegas on an outstanding order for his arrest. The order references four counts of sexual assault against a 5-year-old boy that occurred in May 2001, police said.
Several agencies, including the Guilford County Sheriff's Office, teamed up Saturday to arrest Santibanez-Cardenas in High Point.
Santibanez-Cardenas was arrested without incident. Authorities said he admitted to using the alias Julian Solis-Cardenas since 2006.
