Kentucky firefighter accused of exposing himself to boy indicted on child porn charges.

A Middlesboro firefighter who already faces an indecent exposure charge has now been charged with three federal counts of receiving child pornography.

Robert Christopher England was indicted last week and has been accused of knowingly receiving sexual images of children ages 12 years old and younger, according to court documents.

He was arrested by the U.S. Marshals Monday, according to WRIL, and has been placed in the Laurel County Detention Center. Jail records indicate he is a federal prisoner.

In June, England allegedly exposed his genitals to a 10-year-old boy in a Walmart bathroom, according to court records. He was arrested in August on an indecent exposure charge.

In May, he was accused of stealing money from the Middlesboro Youth Football League, of which he was the president at the time, WYMT reported.

England has upcoming court dates scheduled for all three of his court cases.
