Arlington Police Announce Arrest of Man in Child Pornography Case
ARLINGTON — Chief Frederick Ryan reports that the Arlington Police Department and federal agents arrested an Arlington man last evening in connection with a federal child pornography investigation.
ANTONIO GUTIERREZ, AGE 22, was charged with Receiving and Possessing Child Pornography, both federal charges He will appear today in the John Joseph Moakley United States Courthouse in Boston.
Investigators obtained a warrant for a residence on Spring Road in Arlington, which is also the location of a residential daycare program owned by the suspect’s extended family. However, when officers and FBI agents went to the residence, it was determined that GUTIERREZ no longer lived there. A preliminary investigation indicates that the alleged actions of the suspect did not include the daycare or its children.
“I am grateful that this individual has been taken into custody and will answer for his alleged crimes,” Chief Ryan said. “We strongly value our partnership and close working relationship with the FBI, and the communication and sharing of resources between our two agencies.”

Any further questions should be directed to the United States Attorney’s Office.
