Two West Volusia County men are being held without bail following their respective arrests Wednesday on child sex abuse charges, according to the sheriff's office.
Orange City resident Jacob Bloom, 32, is charged with lewd/lascivious molestation by a person 18 years of age or older on a victim less than 12 years of age, records show.
Bloom, who wasn't a stranger to the child, has a record of sexually abusing infants when he was 13 years old in Flagler County, according to the sheriff's office.

DeBary resident Daniel Tillis, 76, also is charged with lewd/lascivious molestation by a person 18 years of age or older on a victim less than 12 years of age, records show.
Like Bloom, Tillis, owner of Tillis Pest Control, wasn't a stranger to the child, and during the investigation, two adults reported they'd suffered sexual abuse by Tillis when they were children, according to the sheriff's office.
The sheriff's office is asking anyone with information on other potential cases involving either of the men to contact the Child Exploitation Unit at 386-323-3574.
