An investigation from January leads to the arrest of a father accused of sexually assaulting his daughter.

33-year-old Martin Angel Espitia was arrested overnight Thursday.

According to the investigators, the victim was his daughter. She was 11 when the assaults started.

She told investigators that it started out as touching and escalated. The victim never told anyone because she was scared.

Espitia denied the allegations. He was given the opportunity to take a polygraph, but refused.

He was arrested and charged with sexual assault of a child and is being held in the Brazos County Jail under $50,000 bond
