Residents outraged after 11-year-old Cypress boy says he was sexually assaulted by teen

11-year-old boy says he was touched and flashed

HOUSTON – An 11-year-old boy claims somebody sexually assaulted him in the Westgate community of Cypress.

The Harris County Sheriff's Office said it happened in the 7800 block of Blue Wahoo Lane on Friday, April 29th at around 5 p.m.

The boy was reportedly approached by a white male believed to be in his late teens, who allegedly exposed himself to the child and touched the boy's genitals.

"You don't even see any of the kids outside anymore. The parents are really concerned," said Maria Morales, a resident. "That's very scary. Now, I'm afraid to let my grandson go anywhere by himself."

Morales told KPRC 2 she found out about the alleged attack on a neighborhood Facebook page.

"The police need to do something about it," said Belen Gutierrez.

The Harris County Sheriff's Office said the Crimes Against Children Unit is investigating the case.

Anybody with information about the suspect should call HCSO immediately.
