SoCal Man Hacks Neighbors WiFi To Access Disturbing Images: Police

REDLANDS, CA — An Inland Empire man was arrested on suspicion of using his neighbor's WiFi to "move and trade" child pornography, officials said this week.

Dimas Omar Montoya, 30, of Redlands in San Bernardino County, was arrested Wednesday after police searched his home in the 100 block of West Colton Avenue, KTLA reported.

Investigators reportedly received a tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, the station said.

After serving a search warrant at his home, KTLA reported that police found 1,312 "Child Sexual Abuse Material" images on Montoya's social media and messaging accounts.

Although the tip initially traced to Montoya's neighbors, they were cleared of suspicion after it was determined that their WiFi was being used illegally, KTLA reported.
