The 23-year-old man met the girls online, picked them up in Andover and brought them to Burnsville home, charges say.

A 23-year-old Burnsville man is accused of sexual assault and kidnapping after bringing two 13-year-old Andover girls he met online to the basement of his parents’ home, according to charges filed Thursday in Anoka County.

Casey Lee Chinn was charged with six felonies — two counts of third degree criminal sexual conduct, two counts of kidnapping and two counts of solicitation

Authorities say Chinn met the girls through Omegle, a free online chat site, and picked them up around 7:30 Monday evening in Andover. Police, using clues gleaned from the girls’ electronic devices, tracked them to the Burnsville home Tuesday morning. …

On Tuesday, officials at Cristo Rey Jesuit High School in Minneapolis placed Chinn on leave from the part-time job as volleyball coach he began in September.

“We are cooperating fully with the Anoka County Sheriff’s Office and are encouraging our school families to discuss any interactions that their children may have had with Mr. Chinn and to come forward with any concerns,” the school said Tuesday.
