On Tuesday, detectives obtained an arrest warrant for Guevara-Chicas charging him with multiple counts related to the possession of child pornography along with three counts of sex abuse of a minor, police said.
On Thursday, Guevara-Chicas was arrested at his place of employment in Gaithersburg on the strength of the Montgomery County arrest warrant. Bond information for Guevara-Chicas is not yet available. Bail information had yet to be published on online court records.
