CEDAR RAPIDS — A Cedar Rapids man was arrested Saturday on charges he sexually abused a 14-year-old girl.
Anderson Porter, 54, is charged with three counts of third-degree sexual abuse and two counts of lascivious conduct with a minor.
The girl reported the abuse, which authorities said happened once on Aug. 5 and once several weeks before that, to a family friend and later to a forensic interviewer, according to a criminal complaint.
A warrant was issued Thursday and Porter was booked Saturday at the Linn County Jail. He had his initial appearance Monday and is being held on a $25,000 bail.
