Miguel Adan Lux Pu, 33, has been arrested in Berwick, Louisiana, following an investigation into the sexual abuse of a child under the age of 13. Pu faces five counts of first-degree rape.

According to police reports, the investigation began after receiving a report of abuse on September 16. During questioning, Pu reportedly admitted to having sexual contact with the minor on several occasions.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has placed an immigration detainer on Pu, a native of Guatemala, who had previously been deported from the United States and unlawfully reentered the country approximately five to six years ago. Due to the detainer, authorities have not yet set a bond.
