IREDELL COUNTY, NC–A former employee of Iredell-Statesville Schools is facing rape charges after police said he met with a 17-year-old boy he met online.

CBS Affiliate WBTV said the suspect is Glen McCoy, 30. McCoy was arrested in Tennessee last Thursday and charged with statutory rape and sexual exploitation of a minor.

Police told WBTV McCoy drove from North Carolina to meet the teen at a motel in Madison, TN. Also officers said they have saw emails exchanged between the teen and McCoy that showed photos of them engaging in sex acts.

McCoy allegedly met the 17-year-old on a website and started messaging each other, then they exchanged photos before it escalated to the meeting, according to police.

Officials with Iredell-Statesville Schools confirmed that McCoy was employed there from September 2002 until February 2012, as a bus driver and a teacher’s assistant.
