A citizen’s tip about a known registered sex offender in the company of children at the GET bus terminal downtown led to his arrest Saturday, the Bakersfield Police Department reported.
Kenneth Lujan, 48, of Bakersfield, was with his two sons, ages 2 and 4, at the time of the arrest. The boys were taken into protective custody, officials said.
A police investigation revealed that Lujan was suspected of having molested an 11-year-old girl at the Tropicana Motel on the 1600 block of Union Ave., where Lujan lives. The incident was reported by other residents of the motel, the BPD said.
Kern County Superior Court records show that Lujan pleaded guilty to a charge of lewd or lascivious acts with a child under the age of 14 in 1988.
