Deputies of the Ventura County Sheriff's Department arrested a 15-year-old boy in nearby Fillmore last week on suspicion of sex-related crimes.
Deputies arrested the boy, whose name was not released because he is a minor, after receiving a complaint that he approached a female on a residential street and exposed his genitals, according to a statement issued by the Sheriff's Department Tuesday.
The boy was lodged in juvenile hall, according to the statement, which went on to say Fillmore police then linked the boy with two sexual batteries that occurred in the same vicinity in mid March.
