A 22-year-old man was in custody Monday on suspicion of sexually assaulting a 5-year-old girl at a Linda Vista home last week.
Alejandro Jose Confesor was arrested Sunday night in connection with the alleged assault, which was reported around 1:45 a.m. Thursday at a home in the 2800 block of Wellington Street, according to San Diego Police Department Lt. Michael Swanson.

Confesor was spotted around 11:15 p.m. Sunday drinking a beer in the 6700 block of Linda Vista Road. He was arrested on suspicion of lewd and lascivious acts with a child under 14 with force, sex crime with specific circumstances, assault with intent to commit rape or other sex acts during a residential burglary, burglary, and trespassing, the lieutenant said.
Anyone with information about the crimes or video surveillance from the area was asked to call SDPD’s Child Abuse Unit at 619-531-2210.
