Athletic Trainer Chris Flores Arrested, Charged with Sexually Assaulting a Minor

Chris Flores, a well-known athletic trainer based in Southern California, was arrested on Thursday on charges related to sexual assault of a minor.

Per ESPN's Kyle Bonagura and Paolo Uggetti, Flores was taken into custody in Bakersfield after a warrant for his arrest was issued by the Santa Ana Police Department. He had been under investigation by police after allegations surfaced of sexual misconduct involving underage girls.

The allegations stemmed from an audio recording posted on social media in which an adult male voice can be heard trying to convince a young woman to go to the movies.
