Jose Rincon, of Hayward, was charged with two counts of committing a lewd act on a child. He is set to appear in court to enter a plea on Aug. 18, and has been released on $75,000 bail, records show.<\/p>\n

The alleged victim\u2019s father alerted police on June 4 after going through her daughter\u2019s phone. Police say they determined that after meeting on Snapchat, Rincon picked the girl up, drove her to Chabot College, and that the alleged sexual abuse occurred in a parked car there, according to court records.<\/p>\n

The girl later learned Rincon\u2019s true age and he claimed he\u2019d taken videos of them without her consent, police said. When detectives interviewed Rincon on July 2, he allegedly attempted to conceal two bracelets on his arm that police matched to a video of the girl found on his phone, authorities said in court records.<\/p>\n

Rincon has been ordered not to communicate with minors as a condition of his release.<\/p>\n
