SEXUAL ABUSE: Ankeny Man Charged

An Ankeny man is facing six counts of third-degree sex abuse.

Following an investigation into the sexual abuse of a Bremer County minor an arrest warrant was issued for 34-year-old Ryan Porath, but he was out of the country.

Then U.S. Customs and Border Patrol agents arrested Porath at a Detroit airport in December.

Porath is accused of sexually abusing a minor from the Janesville area.

He has already been extradited to Bremer County where he is being held. His arraignment is scheduled for January 22.
