A search is underway from North Carolina to Mexico for a wanted man.
On Friday, authorities said they received a report a 37 year-old man took indecent liberties with his juvenile stepdaughter.
The incident occurred on July 16th. The victim was taken to a local hospital for medical care. However law enforcement authorities didn’t learn about the incident until yesterday.
