PALESTINE \u2013 Former Gettysburg, Pa., Mayor Chad-Alan Carr was arrested on Wednesday in Anderson County on two counts of sexual assault and one count of photography\/film on a computer depicting sexual acts involving a child. Carr, who is facing multiple felonies connected to alleged child sex crimes, had posted bail after his initial arrest last month, after a man claimed Carr engaged in inappropriate behavior with him online when the victim was a minor.<\/p>\n
Pennsylvania State Police filed new charges Wednesday against Carr after three men came forward with new allegations of physical sexual abuse and inappropriate comments, some of which came when the victims were underage.<\/p>\n
According to Adams County Sheriff Josh Fitting, on Wednesday afternoon, a warrant was issued for Carr, and it was determined he was in Anderson County, Texas.<\/p>\n
