Police: Child sex assault at casino

ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. - December 4, 2008 - Authorities said the victim, who lives in Jersey City, was playing an arcade game machine at Harrah's Resort Atlantic City when Bernard Roldan approached him and asked the child to show him how to play the game.

According to court documents, Roldan repeatedly rubbed up against the boy while pulling the child's shirt up. He also cashed out arcade game tickets to prompt the child to bend over and retrieve them from the machine, during which time Roldan assaulted him again.

The alleged assault took place Aug. 16. Roldan was indicted by an Atlantic County grand jury on Wednesday on charges of sexual assault.

Roldan has been held on $50,000 bail since his arrest. It could not immediately be determined if he has hired a lawyer.
