“Mind you, this area is about 21 minutes from Grandma’s house,” Lopez added. “Wolves exist, predators exist. You know, you throw a little 10-year-old girl out in an area like that, it doesn’t matter what time of the morning or day it is, that’s a reckless, irresponsible act.”

“Even the witnesses say she was scared, distraught, crying, confused,” Lopez said. “I would’ve been too if someone would’ve thrown me out at that age.”

Deputies tracked Serrano down shortly after the incident and arrested him.
