Authorities looking for a high school football coach who vanished last week and was considered missing have now announced that he is a wanted man.
Travis Turner, 46, of Appalachia, Virginia, faces charges of possessing child sexual abuse material and using a computer to solicit a minor, police in Virginia said on Tuesday.
Virginia State Police (VSP) went to Mr Turner's home last Thursday as part of an investigation - not to arrest him - but were told he wasn't there. Since then, they have used drones, search and rescue teams to find him.
"VSP's main priority is locating Turner safely; he is now considered a fugitive," said a spokesperson for the police department, which now has 10 warrants for his arrest.
Additional charges against the football coach are pending, police said.
Turner is a physical education teacher and head football coach at Union High School in Wise County public school district in Virginia, according to the school's website.
The school district told US media it was aware of the charges against a "staff member", adding that the employee had been placed on administrative leave.
They did not identify the employee. The BBC has contacted the school district for further comment.
"The individual remains on leave and is not permitted on school property or to have contact with students," said Mike Goforth, division superintendent for Wise County Public Schools.
"The division will continue to cooperate with law enforcement as this process moves forward. Because this is an active legal matter involving personnel, the division cannot comment further."
According to a listing in Virginia's missing persons database, Turner was last seen wearing a gray sweatshirt, sweatpants and glasses.
With their coach missing last weekend, the Union High School football team advanced to the Virginia regional final, continuing its 12-0 season.
