A magistrate set bond for an illegal immigrant living in Myrtle Beach charged with criminal sexual conduct with a minor.

Authorities arrested 22 year old Leobardo Reyes Sunday after they say he had sex with a 15 year old girl.

Horry County officials say family members discovered what was going on between the two, and contacted police.

Neither the victim, nor the victim’s guardians attended the bond hearing this morning.

The judge denied Reyes bond because Reyes is in the states illegally, and the judge says he is a flight risk.

Reyes remains in the J. Reuben Long Detention Center where he’ll await his trial.
