PHOENIX — A 20-year-old Arizona man is accused of impregnating an 11-year-old girl, the Arizona Republic reported.
Carlos Jacinto Cobo-Perez, of Phoenix, was arrested May 17 and charged with one count of aggravated assault and two counts of sexual conduct with a minor, according to court records.
The relationship was discovered in November by the girl's mother, the Republic reported.
The girl reportedly told police she skipped her after-school program "about a month ago" and had sex in Cobo-Perez's car near her school, KNXV reported.
"She was infatuated," the victim's mother told KNXV. "She didn't understand, she's a kid, and any person that's older than her can wrap her around their finger."
Police spoke to Cobo-Perez on Dec. 10, and he reportedly admitted to having the relationship, the television station reported. Cobo-Perez told police he would break off contact with the girl, according to court records.
On May 17, the girl was taken to a Phoenix hospital, where tests confirmed she was pregnant, the Republic reported.
Cobo-Perez's next court hearing is Tuesday, according to court records.
