A Huntington man is behind bars charged with child sex abuse.

 

26-year-old Zackery Reahard is accused of molesting two pre-teen boys.

 

Investigators say the sex abuse started in 2007 and continued til 2010.

 

"It's no secret that in cases like this, it does take a while for alleged victims to come forward" says Indiana State Police Sergeant Tony Slocum.

 

Reahard was arrested at his Huntington County home last night.
Investigators say he molested two Wabash County boys.
They were between 11 and 12 years old at the time.

 

"Just like with any crime, one time is too many" Slocum says.

 

Indiana State Police started the investigation after getting a tip from child services.

 

"We don't want anyone in our community to be harmed especially when we talk about young people, the most vulnerable in our society" Slocum says.

 

Today, WFFT stopped by Reahard's home and spoke with Reahard's family members. They declined to comment.

 

Reahard is currently in the Huntington County jail.
He'll be transferred to Wabash County tomorrow.
