Wheeling man accused of molesting child

A Cook County judge set bond at $100,000 Monday for a 22-year-old Wheeling man accused of molesting a child.

Police charged Oscar Diaz Figueroa, who has no criminal background, with predatory criminal sexual assault, a class X felony that carries a possible sentence of six to 30 years in prison upon conviction.

The child told a parent shortly after the alleged incident, which occurred between late August and early September of this year, said a spokeswoman from the Cook County State's Attorney's Office.
