An accused child predator now faces charges in Collier County.

Deputies say Celeste Boliva, 54, of Immokalee, inappropriately touched a child between the ages of 12 and 16.

They say he offered to give the child a ride home.

The victim tells investigators Boliva instead drove to a wooded area and started to touch and kiss him.

He escaped and called for help.

Boliva faces a molestation charge and remains in jail with bail set at $20,000.
