Stearns County Jail

ST. CLOUD (WJON News) -- Stearns County prosecutors have filed criminal sexual conduct charges against a Sauk Rapids man for allegedly abusing a child.

Authorities have charged 22-year-old Micah Coleman with three counts of 1st-degree criminal sexual conduct with a child under 14-years-old.

Investigators learned on April 6th that a boy disclosed to a woman that Coleman had been abusing him at his Le Sauk Township home. According to the criminal complaint, the boy shared details about the abuse with a forensic interviewer at the Child Advocacy Center the following day.

Prosecutors say they plan to seek an aggravated sentence due to multiple acts of abuse and Coleman being in a position of authority.

Court records allege Coleman admitted the abuse to authorities in a mirandized statement.

He's due in court on April 29th.
