Las Vegas police are asking the public’s help for more information about a 53-year-old man arrested Wednesday on suspicion of sexual assault against an older person.

Arrold Jean faces three felony counts of sexual assault against an older person, according to Las Vegas Justice Court records.

“Detectives believe there may be additional victims,” the Metropolitan Police Department said in a statement Thursday.
