Caleb Gaston on Thursday waived his preliminary hearing. He’s accused of sexually assaulting a 3-year-old girl and of raping a 4-year-old girl, both in January.

His trial was scheduled for July 23.

The alleged assaults happened in the Kid Zone at the downtown YMCA branch.

Gaston remains jailed on $1.1 million bond.

Gaston’s attorney, Steve Ariagno, has said that Gaston denies all allegations of wrongdoing.
