allegations of child sexual abuse

San Diego County sheriff’s official says the father of former Wimbledon finalist Mark Philippoussis has been arrested on suspicion of molesting two children, the San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

The newspaper says Nikolaos Philippoussis, 68, a tennis coach, was taken into custody at his home on Tuesday. The Union-Tribune reports that officials said only that the alleged victims were under the age of 14 and were students of Philippoussis.

Sheriff’s lieutenant Greg Rylaarsdam says Philippoussis was booked into jail on a dozen counts of committing lewd or lascivious acts with a child under the age of 14, and two counts of committing sexual acts with a child younger than 10 years old.
