The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation’s Office of Correctional Safety Fugitive Apprehension Team arrested 25-year-old Alexander Childs in Sacramento Tuesday.
Childs was a parolee-at-large as his parole had been suspended for absconding and a warrant was issued for his arrest on May 19, 2017. El Dorado County Sheriff's deputies and other South Lake Tahoe area law enforcement had been looking for Childs after he said he was in the Meyers area on Thursday.
Childs was convicted in 2012 for Lewd or Lascivious Acts with a Child under 14-year-of-age.
According to Luis Patino of the Department of Corrections, Childs was arrested by the team without incident. He will be booked into the Sacramento County Jail.
