Charged with multiple counts of sexual assault, boxing star Victor Ortiz turned himself in to local authorities Tuesday, according to the Oxnard Police Department.

Ortiz, 31, of Tarzana and formerly of Ventura, was charged Monday by the Ventura County District Attorney’s Office with three felony sexual assault charges, including forcible rape.

Just before 3 p.m. Tuesday, Ortiz turned himself in at the Ventura County Sheriff’s Office East Valley station, Oxnard police said.

Victor Ortiz in the news:

Ventura County Superior Court records show a violation date for the sexual assault charges of March 19 and listed the Oxnard Police Department as the investigating agency. According to Oxnard police, the investigation into Ortiz was launched just before 1 p.m. on that date when a female victim contacted police regarding a sexual assault.

The Oxnard police family protection unit responded to the incident, officials said.

Ortiz was identified as a suspect on the date of the incident, said Oxnard police Cmdr. Sharon Giles.

According court records, Ortiz is eligible for state prison.

Ortiz’s bail was set at $100,000.

The 2005 graduate of Oxnard’s Pacifica High School is a high-profile boxer who rose through the Ventura County ranks to hold the WBC welterweight title in 2011.

Ortiz’s arrest calls into question his plans to go up against his friend and former sparring partner John Molina Jr. on Sunday night in a nationally televised event on Fox Sports 1.

In addition to boxing, Ortiz has gained attention for roles in movies such as the action film “Expendables 3” and the boxing drama “Southpaw,” and he appeared on “Dancing With the Stars” in 2013.

Ortiz was born and raised in Garden City, Kansas, but moved to Denver with his sister in the early 2000s. He later moved to Oxnard and trained at La Colonia Youth Boxing Club. His trainer, former boxer Roberto Garcia, became his legal guardian.

At age 16, Ortiz won the 2003 Police Athletic League national championship, then reached the U.S. Olympic boxing trials but was eventually eliminated. He went pro in 2004 when he was 17.

He’s had trouble with the law before.

In October 2017, Ortiz plead guilty to a misdemeanor DUI charge stemming from a Sept. 24, 2016, arrest, according to court records. He also admitted to a special allegation that he was driving with a blood alcohol content of 0.15 percent or more. He was placed on three years of probation, court records show.

Ortiz also was arrested July 25, 2015, on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon after allegedly beating up a fan during a Kenny Chesney concert at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, according to previous news reports.
