Pastor Charged with Sex Abuse Arrested in Mexico

HENDERSON, Nev. -- A Las Vegas pastor wanted on charges of having sex with underage girls was captured in Mexico on Wednesday night.

Fifty-five-year-old Otis Holland allegedly fled the Henderson area after an arrest warrant was issued for him on 11 counts of sexual assault of a victim under 16, one count of child abuse and conspiracy to commit a crime.

Holland's case was recently featured on America's Most Wanted. A tip from someone who watched the show led to his arrest. 

The U.S. Marshals Service, working with the Mexican National Police, apprehended Holland in Tijuana Wednesday night. 

Holland was then turned over to the U.S. Marshals Service. He is currently being held in the San Diego Central Jail pending extradition back to Henderson.

Holland was arrested in December of 2010 on three counts of sexual assault of a victim under 16.
