Two men have been arrested on charges of sexually assaulting a seven-year-old girl.

West Palm Beach Police Chief Tony Araujo says the attacks happened multiple times and the victim told her babysitter about it and later told police investigators.

"Detectives identified the suspects as 26-year-old Josue David Mendez Sales and 23-year-old Pablo Cobon Mendez."

He says Mendez Sales is the girl's father. That man is also accused of child abuse for allegedly hitting his daughter with a belt.

Chief Araujo says both men confessed to the crimes.

No word on whether either or both of the men are in the country illegally, but the police chief noted the Department of Homeland Security helped in the investigation.
