Authorities in Willacy County are seeking information on a Raymondville man arrested last month on seven different sex-related crimes against a child.

Jose Pena, 76, remains jailed in Willacy County after an alleged victim spoke out. He was charged with four counts of indecency with a child and three counts of sexual performance by a child, Raymondville Police Department spokeswoman Denise Gomez said.

“Throughout our investigation, we learned he was employed with one of our local head starts, and he was a bus driver,” Gomez added.

Police say Pena worked at the Otis Klar Head Start in Raymondville. Channel 5 News could not confirm if he is still an employee there.

Because of his role as a bus driver, Raymondville police want to know if there are any other victims. Those with information on the investigation are urged to contact police at 956-689-2441.
