(KAIR)--A 13-year-old Effingham boy is facing child-related sex crimes charges, following his arrest last week.
According to a release from Atchison County Sheriff Jack Laurie, the teen was arrested Thursday, and taken into custody on two counts of aggravated indecent liberties with a child less than 14-years-of-age, and one count of lewd and lascivious behavior.
Laurie, in the release, says the crimes are alleged to have occurred on April 21.
Following his arrest, the juvenile was released to juvenile intake, then later transported to juvenile detention.
Few details have been made public, due to the ages of those involved, but Laurie says the investigation is continuing.
