A runaway juvenile has been reunited with her family and authorities have located the Texas man who was wanted for harboring her.

The Brewster County Sheriff’s Office said 39-year-old Pedro “Kiko” Hinojos, Jr. was wanted for enticing a child and harboring a female juvenile runaway.

Hinojos is now also facing being charged with the sexual assault of a child, along with the previous warrants.

"Information obtained by Brewster County Deputies lead to the arrest of Hinojos in Midland County," said the sheriff's office. "The juvenile was reunited with family members. This case is still under investigation."
