In late August, the Irving Police Department was made aware of an Indecency with a Child offense that occurred at Little Spurs Pediatrics in Irving. During the investigation, it was found the suspect, 25-year-old Angel Nunez, who Little Spurs Pediatrics employed as a Medical Assistant, had inappropriate sexual contact with multiple juvenile patients on separate occasions. These patients believed they were receiving a medical exam and were not aware at the time that they were being abused.
The suspect worked at multiple Little Spurs Pediatrics locations, including Irving, Grand Prairie, Arlington, and Fort Worth, between August of 2023 and August of 2024. Nunez was arrested on September 5, 2024, for Indecency with a Child and bonded out of the Dallas County Jail on a $100,000 bond on September 7, 2024. Little Spurs Pediatrics has been fully cooperative during this investigation.
The Irving Police Department encourages anyone who could have interacted with Nunez to discuss this with their children, family members, and friends.
