Man arrested after trying to take minor out of the country

A 36-year-old man suspected of having sex with an underage girl was arrested last week after he tried to take her out of the country to Amsterdam at San Francisco International Airport, according to the Redwood City Police Department. 

The situation began when Redwood City police received a call on June 1 from a concerned citizen who said a couple had set up camp in a nearby park and were having sex in public view. 

After officers found Raymos, the suspect's name, and the victim, an investigation led to the man's arrest June 15 in Menlo Park, authorities said Monday.

The court ordered the suspect to have no contact with the victim, and after posting bail he was released on June 19.

However, on July 7, Raymos attempted to take the child out of the country to Amsterdam, but was questioned by security at San Francisco International Airport and was found to be in violation of a restraining order.  

Further investigation resulted in the individual being re-arrested and booked into the San Mateo County Jail on $5 million bail.

Authorities have requested that anyone with information about the incident should contact Detective De La Cerda at (650) 780-7697 or the Redwood City Police Department tip line at (650) 780-7110.
