North Texas pediatrician arrested on second charge of indecency with a child

IRVING, TexasA North Texas pediatrician accused of abusing children in his care has been arrested on charges of indecency with a child.

Irving police initially arrested 25-year-old Angel Nunez on September 5 on indecency and a child abuse charge. This latest arrest took place on October 9. In previous Irving police statements, investigators were aware of three victims.

Police say the victim linked to the latest charge is nine years old. Investigators believe Nunez had inappropriate sexual contact with the child in January 2024 at Little Spurs Pediatrics in Irving. The circumstances surrounding this offense were similar to those of the other two victims in August 2024.

Police first received a tip in August indicating Nunez had had inappropriate sexual contact with multiple children at Little Spurs Pediatrics in Irving. The pediatric clinic where Nunez worked contacted authorities. The children thought they were being given medical tests.

Nunez worked for Little Spurs Pediatrics for about a year. He was fired in August. In addition to the Irving office, he also worked at locations in Grand Prairie, Arlington and Fort Worth.

Irving police are now encouraging parents to talk to their children about past interactions with Nunez. Anyone who suspects their child may have been a victim is asked to call police at 972-273-1010.

Nunez was booked into the Dallas County Jail on Thursday. He is being held on a $300,000 bond.
