LANCASTER, Ohio -- A Lancaster man has been accused of inappropriately videotaping young children.
NBC 4 reported with the FAST FACTS.
William D. Thomas, 41, was arrested and charged with four counts of gross sexual imposition Wednesday.
The investigation into Thomas began when a mother filed a complaint with Lancaster police Sunday.
Thomas allegedly was videotaping the mother’s 6-year-old and 8-year-old children at his apartment on Tiki Lane.
He videotaped the children in the nude four separate times between February and September 2009, according to authorities and court documents.
Detectives executed a search warrant Monday and found allegedly incriminating evidence.
Authorities did not release additional information on the evidence.
He was arraigned on the charges Thursday afternoon. NBC 4 was at the arraignment where Thomas pleaded not guilty to all four counts.
Thomas was being held in the Fairfield County Jail on a $50,000 bond.
Parents or residents with information on Thomas were encouraged to call Detective Bryan Underwood at 740-687-6680 ext. 35.
