EATON —

A 38-year-old New Paris man is accused on several felony counts stemming from an investigation into allegations that he sexually assaulted a girl he knows, the Preble County Sheriff’s Office said Wednesday.

Christopher L. Scott was arrested early Monday after he turned himself in at the sheriff’s office.

Deputies believe the abuse has occurred since the child was 6 years old, according to Sheriff Michael Simpson’s office.

Scott, arraigned Tuesday in Eaton Municipal Court, is charged with three counts of rape, three counts of gross sexual imposition and single counts of sexual battery and importuning.

Bond in the case has been set at $200,000.
