LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- A southern Indiana man was arrested Tuesday on multiple charges of child molestation.
Jacob Hayes, 43, was arrested after a warrant was served at his Washington County home Wednesday.
An investigation began in January when an Indiana Department of Child Services case manager reported allegations of inappropriate sexual contact involving a minor.
Hayes faces 19 charges, including child molesting and sexual misconduct with a minor.
He is being held without bond at the Washington County Jail and scheduled to appear in court later this week.
Authorities said the investigation remains ongoing.
