Nassau Police charge Lindenhurst man with sex crimes after incident at Sunrise Mall.

Nassau County Police have arrested a Lindenhurst man in connection with several sexually explicit acts with a 13-year-old girl, beginning with a forcible touching incident Aug. 9 at the . 

Rashid M. Aziz, 25, will be arraigned Sunday at First District Court in Hempstead on multiple sex charges: Disseminating indecent material to a minor; Possession of an obscene sexual performance by a child; Unlawful imprisonment; Forcible touching; and three counts of Endangering the welfare of a child. 

Police say Aziz met the 13-year-old at the mall, gave her a cigarette and then forcibly restrained her arms and then kissed her as she protested.
