SIOUX FALLS, S.D (AP) - A former Sioux Falls teacher is under arrest on charges he had sexual contact with a minor.

A Sioux Falls police spokesman said Daylan Scott Fargo, 27, was arrested Monday in Hall County, Nebraska. Fargo faces three charges, including sexual contact with a child under 16, sexual exploitation of a minor and solicitation of a minor.

Fargo is a former assistant choir director at Washington High School. The Argus Leader reports Fargo resigned from his position two days before a parent filed a protection order against him last week on behalf of their son.

Fargo is being held in Nebraska on $100,000 cash bond. The Minnehaha County State's Attorney's office said Wednesday no attorney was listed for Fargo who could speak for him.

A spokeswoman for the Sioux Falls School District confirms Fargo is no longer a district employee.
