Man Charged With Assaulting Girl in Wal-Mart

Police say the incident took place shortly after 3 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 20 at the store at 7910 Richmond Highway.

Fairfax County police say Jaime Francisco Calacan Jr., 36, of Alexandria told the girl that he was a police officer and that he had to check her pockets for stolen merchandise, but while doing so, he molested her.

The girl kicked the man in the groin and ran to her mother. Police say the girl was not injured.

She notified store security, who called police. Calacan was arrested shortly afterward inside the store.

Calacan is charged with abduction, two counts of animate object sexual penetration, aggravated sexual battery and impersonating a police officer.

A Wal-Mart spokesman says the company takes such incidents seriously and works with police to ensure customers' safety.
