Authorities say they suspect the 41-year-old Vucic of Lake Forest may have fled to Germany.
A sheriff’s department spokeswoman says a girl under 13 told her grandparents that Vucic had inappropriate sexual contact with her multiple times in 2012. Authorities say Vucic hasn’t had contact with any students since they were notified of the alleged crime.
Lake County authorities say they believe others have been victims of Vucic and are asking them to contact the sheriff’s department.
