Police arrested a man in an alleged series of rapes in San Bernardino, and investigators are working to determine if there are other victims.

Jonathan Arredondo, a state parolee, was arrested in Riverside and booked into San Bernardino County Jail for forcible rape, sodomy, oral copulation and assault with a deadly weapon, according to police.
