Authorities say a witness who saw Flores “forcibly car- rying” the girl into a seclud- ed area scrambled to find the father. Running toward his daughter’s screams, the father pulled Flores off his child and “inflicted several blows to the man’s head and neck area,” investigators said. Emergency crews respond- ing to the father’s 911 call found Flores’ pants and underwear pulled down on his lifeless body. The girl was examined at a hospital, and authorities say forensic evi- dence and witness accounts corroborated the father’s story that his daughter was being sexually molested. At Werner’s Restaurant, customer Gail Allen said she didn’t want to speak for the town, though her comments echoed what others said. “The father has gone through enough,” said Allen, 59, who has nine grandchil- dren. “The little girl is going to be traumatized for life, and the father, too, for what hap- pened.
