ORLANDO, Fla. – A local Boy Scout leader is waking up in the Volusia County Jail, accused of molesting a 14-year-old girl.
He has been under investigation since mid-November when the victim’s family came forward and he later admitted while being interviewed to having sexual contact with the girl, deputies said.
Torres is an assistant scoutmaster in Daytona Beach.
Deputies say the victim was a member of his troop but that none of the incidents happened during scout-sanctioned events.
He’s being held without bond.

Long before Disney World became the staple of Florida’s tourism industry, there was Weeki Wachee — the city of live mermaids.
Since opening its doors in 1947, Weeki Wachee has attracted thousands of roadside visitors and aspiring mermaids from all over the world.
The surrounding town of Weeki Wachee used to be known as one of the nation’s smallest cities with a population of just 13, but in 2020, the state legislature dissolved the municipality over financial concerns.
