Alan Vasquez-Alarcon faces multiple felony sex charges following a joint investigation by Spring Valley and Ramapo police that included a missing juvenile case.

An 18-year-old man has been arrested and charged with multiple felony sex offenses in connection with alleged sexual encounters involving three 13-year-old girls, including one who had been reported missing, according to police.

Alan Vasquez-Alarcon was taken into custody following an investigation conducted by the Spring Valley Police Department and the Ramapo Police Department, Detective Sgt. Randy DiPaolo said.

Police said the investigation began in September. On September 30, officers from both departments launched a joint sexual assault investigation after receiving information concerning Vasquez-Alarcon and one of the girls.

According to investigators, the inquiry determined that Vasquez-Alarcon allegedly engaged in a sexual relationship with the juvenile in both Spring Valley and Ramapo.

The investigation expanded on October 6, when Spring Valley police became involved in a missing-person case concerning a second 13-year-old girl. Investigators subsequently learned that she may also have been involved in an intimate relationship with Vasquez-Alarcon, police said.

Officers went to a residence on Lafayette Street in an attempt to locate Vasquez-Alarcon and the missing juvenile. When police arrived, Vasquez-Alarcon allegedly fled the residence but was quickly apprehended. The missing girl was subsequently found inside the residence, according to DiPaolo.

Further investigation led detectives to conclude that Vasquez-Alarcon had allegedly engaged in sexual intercourse with the second juvenile, police said.

Detectives also uncovered a third case involving another 13-year-old girl. Investigators located the girl and determined that she had allegedly been sexually assaulted by Vasquez-Alarcon, according to police.

During the investigations, detectives also learned that Vasquez-Alarcon allegedly presented himself as younger than his actual age, police said.

Vasquez-Alarcon was arraigned in Spring Valley Justice Court before being transferred to the Rockland County Jail.

Police are asking anyone with information related to the investigation to contact the Spring Valley Police Department at 845-356-7400 or email tips@villagespringvalley.org.

The charges are accusations, and the defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in court.

STONY POINT, NY — Ryan O’Shea, a 21-year-old college hockey captain from Stony Point in Rockland County, was killed in a wrong-way crash on Interstate 91 in Connecticut on October 16, 2026.

O’Shea was a senior at the University of New Haven, where he studied criminal justice and served as captain of the men’s club hockey team.

The Rockland County native had aspirations of pursuing a career in law enforcement after graduation. He hoped to become an officer with the New York City Police Department (NYPD), with the ultimate goal of joining the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA).

Those dreams were cut short when O’Shea was killed in the October 16 crash.

According to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the crash involved Guillermo Carmona-Lopez, a driver whom federal officials say had previously been deported from the United States.

DHS stated that Carmona-Lopez had illegally entered the United States multiple times and was issued a final removal order in May 2013.

The circumstances surrounding O’Shea’s death have brought attention to the driver’s reported immigration history and raised questions about immigration enforcement and public safety.

O’Shea’s death represents a devastating loss for his family, friends, teammates, and the Rockland County community.

A college senior, hockey team captain, and aspiring law enforcement officer, O’Shea had been preparing for a future dedicated to serving and protecting others.

His life was tragically cut short at just 21 years old.
