Ankeny Man Faces Six Counts of Sexual Abuse

An Ankeny man is facing six counts of third-degree sex abuse of a minor, according to WHOTV.com.

Following an investigation last year into the sexual abuse of a Bremer County minor, an arrest warrant was issued for 34-year-old Ryan Porath of Ankeny, but he was out of the country, the TV station reported.

Then, U.S. Customs and Border Patrol agents arrested Porath at a Detroit airport in December.

Porath is accused of sexually abusing a minor from the Janesville area.

He has been extradited to Bremer County, where he is being held. His arraignment is scheduled for Jan. 22, the TV station said.
