A family member of the pregnant teenager who has been missing for three weeks has been arrested and charged with felony sexual battery.
The Jacksonville Sheriff's Office arrested Johnathan Quiles, 33, on Tuesday at 8:30 p.m. According to family, he is the uncle of the missing teen.
Johnathan Quiles was arrested for an alleged sexual battery that occurred Dec. 12, 2017 in the 1500 block of 16th Street East on Jacksonville's Eastside.
JSO says there is no connection to the disappearance of Iyana Sawyer.
Information gathered by detectives was significant enough they informed JSO's homicide and missing persons unit.
Johnathan Quiles is being held on a $250,000 bond.
The police report says Johnathan Quiles was arrested at his place of work, Ace Pick-A-Park.
The manager told First Coast News that about six-to-eight officers came in and arrested Quiles while he was working on a job. He said the officers just put him in handcuffs and left, and hasn't heard from JSO since.
Naomi Quiles, Johnathan Quiles' wife, says she learned of her husband's arrest as the media did. She told First Coast News she is very upset, and her priority remains to find her niece.
Naomi Quiles added that she does not know who the sexual battery victim is in the case against her husband.
The family of Sawyer told First Coast News Wednesday that K9 units from Ocala were on their property, searching for her. The Ocala Police Department didn't elaborate, but said JSO called them for assistance.
The family also said investigators are talking to people in Columbus, Georgia in relation to Sawyer.
