Granada Hills high school coach arrested for sexual relationship with a minor
A 36-year-old man who coached basketball at a Granada Hills high school and volunteered for several youth programs across the Los Angeles area has been charged with sexual misconduct involving a minor.
Gabriel Chavez of Chartsworth was arrested Wednesday on multiple counts of lewd acts with a minor and is being held on $310,000 bail, according to the Los Angeles Police Department. The LAPD is asking others who may have been sexually assaulted by Chavez to come forward.

On Saturday, detectives from the police department’s Devonshire division released a photograph of Chavez in hopes of hearing from potential additional victims or people who may have witnessed Chavez engaging in inappropriate behavior.
