Jason Wayne Freeman — who turned 39 today — was arrested Wednesday and booked into the Southwest Detention Center on suspicion of lewd acts on a child under 14, forced sexual penetration and burglary.

He posted a $55,000 bond and was released hours later.

According to the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department, a homeowner in the area of Hunter Ridge and Pine Creek drives went to check on his daughter around 2 a.m. and allegedly discovered Freeman in bed with the girl, performing sex acts.

The suspect, who knows the family, leaped out a bedroom window and fled, sheriff’s officials said.
