Dental house call results in arrest

There probably are dentists who make house calls, but we don’t know any. But that apparently didn’t occur to an Osceola County woman who thought she could get some cheap dental work by having the dentist come to her apartment, OrlandoSentinel.com reports. The woman told detectives she was injected with what she thought was anesthesia, and that after several minutes, Luis Figueroa Vasquez touched her inappropriately several times. Vasquez, 46, was arrested by Osceola County deputies on one count of attempted sexual battery. Vasquez, whose address is a post office box in Sarasota, keeps all of his equipment, including a chair and tools, in a truck.

Sheriff’s detectives could not find any information indicating he is licensed. A Florida Health Department spokeswoman also confirmed there is no record of him being a dentist.
