A teenage inmate’s outcry led to the arrest of a Juvenile Probation Detention Center employee Wednesday night.

Juan De La Rosa, 39, faces a charge of official oppression, according to a press release from the Bexar County Sheriff's Office.

De La Rosa is accused of sexually assaulting a teenage inmate while working at the facility at 600 Mission Road, the release stated.

Authorities became aware of the allegations after the teen alerted a rape crisis therapist.

Bexar County Sheriff’s Office Fugitive Apprehension Unit arrested De La Rosa at his home without incident.
