Doctor in Riverside arrested again on multiple charges of sexual assault
A doctor practicing in Riverside who had previously been arrested on suspicion of sexual assault was taken into custody again after more accusers came forward, according to police.
Dr. Sam Sannoufi of Newport Beach is the owner of Timeless Skincare Laser Clinic and Primary Care Family Practice, located in the 6900 block of Brockton Avenue in Riverside, according to authorities.
Detectives initially arrested him on June 27, on suspicion of sexually assaulting a woman during a consultation exam. He was released after posting $1 million in bail.
Additional accusers have come forward during the investigation with similar sexual assault allegations against Sannoufi, police said.
Sannoufi was arrested Friday in the additional sexual assault allegations and booked into the Robert Presley Detention Center in Riverside, according to officials. He is being held without bail.
Officials think there may be more victims who have yet to come forward.
