Two Arrested Following Sexual Abuse Of A Child Investigation

NORTH COLLINS – Two men have been arrested by the Erie County Sheriff’s Office following an investigation into sexual abuse allegations that occurred in North Collins over the last few years.
Detectives from the Sheriff’s Office received a referral in April from the New York State Child Abuse Hotline about a sexually abused female victim.
They discovered that two males allegedly abused the victim during separate incidents at different North Collins residences.
28-year-old Nathaniel Hirschman, North Collins, was arrested July 3, and 31-year-old Osvaldo Montalvo Santiago, Kersey, Pa., was taken into custody last Friday.
Hirschman is charged with a felony count of sexual conduct against a child – two or more times, as well as a misdemeanor count of endangering the welfare of a child.
Santiago faces a felony charge of sexual conduct against a child less than 11 years old and a misdemeanor count of endangering the welfare of a child.
Both suspects are being held in the Erie County Holding Center on bail.
