HUTCHINSON, Kan. — Reno County sheriff’s deputies have taken a man into custody on suspicion of sexual exploitation of a child.

Law enforcement conducted a search warrant at the residence of Patrick White. The warrant stems from the allegations from a separate law enforcement agency that was made aware of White’s ongoing suspicious activity. After a follow-up investigation, the decision was made to conduct a search of White’s residence. No details have been released as to what was found in the residence during the search, but White is being held on a bond of $50,000.

The sheriff’s office will be referring the case to the Reno County District Attorney and requesting charges. The case is still under investigation. There is no further information being released.
