A 16-year-old boy is accused of sexually molesting two children at a preschool in Little Haiti and investigators say there could be more victims.

Miami police Det. Kenia Fallat told news outlets Wednesday that authorities want the community’s help in identifying other potential victims.

The Miami Herald reports the teen was arrested in 2014 after a 5-year-old girl told detectives the teen followed her into a bathroom at

Bola Learning Center and told her he’d pinch her if she didn’t comply. In July, a 5-year-old girl reported the teen had forced her to perform a sex act on him in a bathroom when she was 3.

A police reports says the teen denied the first allegations. After the second arrest, his mother advised him not to speak to police.
