47-year old Roy Liles was taken into custody by Lenox and Creston Police on two felony counts of 2nd Degree Sexual Abuse. The charges stem from an investigation by the Lenox Police Department into allegations that Liles committed various sexual acts with a 6-year old female in Lenox over a period of several months.

Liles was transported to the Taylor County Jail where he was being held without bond pending an appearance before a magistrate. The investigation continues and additional charges are possible.
