MANASSAS, Va.
A Prince William County Sheriff's Deputy is under arrest, accused of possessing child pornography.
Investigators say they found more than 900 images on 65-year-old Arthur Staples' computer.
The investigation began last week when the St. Lucie County, Florida, Sheriff's Office contacted the Manassas City Police Department about a child pornography suspect living in Manassas City. Manassas police searched Staples' home in the 8600 block of Liberty Trail in Manassas on Friday. Police say they were looking for evidence he was distributing child porn.
Staples was taken into custody and charged with being a fugitive from justice. He is being held without bond pending extradition to St. Lucie, Florida, where he will then be charged with distribution of child pornography over the Internet.
