Man arrested at Southwest Miami daycare, part of child porn investigation, sources say

MIAMI _ Investigators served a federal search warrant Monday morning as part of a criminal investigation at a Southwest Miami-Dade home that is used as a daycare center.

A man, who is the son of the daycare owner, was arrested as part of a child porn investigation, sources close to the investigation say. Authorities did not identify him.

Special agents with Homeland Security Investigations showed up at Little Seeds Academy about 4:30 a.m. Monday.

Investigators hauled out computers and other electronic equipment.

Nestor Yglesias, a spokesman for Homeland Security Investigations, could not say what the investigation is about, but confirmed that a warrant was served.

The academy, which incorporated in 2003, is registered to Luis Ancarola, records show.

Parents told Miami Herald newspartner CBS4 that they were very concerned about the arrest.

"You see these people every day, you just don't expect these things to happen especially here in a facility where children are," parent Zaira Perez told the station. "I have three kids here. I have my baby, a 4-year-old and another who used to go to school here so our main concern is that they are all OK and none are involved in this situation. This is the worst nightmare for any parent."
