A 68-year-old man was convicted Wednesday of molesting five girls in Anaheim.
Tomas Cruz was convicted of nine felony sex charges involving the girls dating back to 2011, according to court records.
Cruz lived with the victims in a multifamily home with 16 relatives, police testified at his preliminary hearing.
One of the girls said the molestation started when she was 5 years old, police testified. Another girl who was about seven months younger said she was also molested, police said.
Another girl said she was molested, starting when she was 10 years old, and another said she was 6 or 7 years old when she was attacked, police said.
Cruz was scheduled to be sentenced Oct. 23 in the Harbor Justice Center in Newport Beach.
