Former Soccer Coach Arrested on Child Abuse Charges in Baltimore County

Roberto Carlos Huezo Garcia faces multiple counts as investigators seek additional victims

Roberto Carlos Huezo Garcia, a 30‑year‑old former soccer coach, was arrested by Baltimore County police on charges of sexual abuse of a minor and sexual solicitation of a minor. The allegations, which date back to January 2026, have shocked the local community and prompted a swift law‑enforcement response.

According to investigators, the misconduct involved victims aged 10 to 15 and was first reported after a series of complaints surfaced over the past year. A warrant was issued in June 2026, leading to Garcia’s detention this week. Authorities have indicated that the case may involve additional victims and witnesses who have yet to come forward.

Garcia’s coaching career spanned several organizations across multiple jurisdictions, where he was known for mentoring young athletes. Following the allegations, he was immediately suspended from all coaching duties, and the clubs he previously worked with have issued statements expressing zero tolerance for such behavior.
