WARMINSTER, PA — A 73-year-old Warminster man has admitted he sexually assaulted a 6-year-old girl "multiple" times at his home, according to information from the Bucks County District Attorney's office.

Tony Carter, of the 600 block of East Street Road, pleaded guilty to two counts of involuntary deviate sexual intercourse in Bucks County Common Pleas Court on Monday. Each count carries a maximum possible sentence of 20 to 40 years in prison, the District Attorney's office said.

According to authorities, the girl, whose relationship to Carter has not been revealed, told an interviewer at the Philadelphia Children's Alliance in November that she and Carter played secret "games" that she considered "bad." The girl also described how Carter made her perform oral sex and that the "games" had been going on for "an extended period of time."
