David Cardona is charged with three counts of second-degree luring or enticing a child, one count of second-degree sexual assault and one count of third-degree endangering the welfare of a child.
Authorities said Cardona allegedly lured an 11-year-old girl into a vehicle and exposed himself to her in August. He also allegedly lured two girls, ages 11 and 13, into a vehicle earlier this month.
If convicted on all count, he faces a maximum of 25 years in prison.
