Ivins man arrested for sex offense

A 40-year-old Ivins man required to register as a sex offender for life was arrested when officers found him driving a vehicle with four juvenile girls during a traffic stop last week.

40 year old Scott David Mock of Ivins, is scheduled to appear in 5th District Court today for a roll call hearing on a misdemeanor sex offender in presence of child charge.

The case stems from an incident Oct. 15 when a Santa Clara-Ivins Police Officer made a traffic stop.

While speaking with the driver, identified as Mock, the officer observed four juvenile girls in the vehicle, three 14-year-olds and one who was 12, according to the probable cause statement filed in support of Mock’s arrest.
