Elkton man arrested on sexual abuse warrant

An Elkton man was arrested on a warrant Friday for alleged sexual abuse against a child.

The warrant says 30-year old Barry Stewart of Elkton made sexual contact with a victim under the age of 12 on two occasions between October and the end of the year.

The Todd County Sheriff’s Department served the warrant for two counts of sexual abuse in the first-degree and the alleged incidents were investigated by Kentucky State Police.

Stewart was lodged in the Todd County Jail on a $15,000 bond.
