(KNZA)--A Missouri man is facing child sex charges in Brown County.

Brown County Sheriff John Merchant says 35-year-old Alexander Holmes, of Maryville, Missouri, was booked into the Brown County Jail Thursday on charges of rape, aggravated sodomy, and aggravated indecent liberties with a child.

Investigators say the charges stem from allegations involving a victim under the age of 14.

Merchant says the case was submitted to the Brown County Attorney for review following a lengthy investigation by the Sheriff’s Office, and a warrant was then issued for Holmes’ arrest.

Holmes remains in the Brown County Jail on a $100,000 bond.
