New Albany, Ind. – Thursday, November 17, 2022:  A Cyber tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) led to the arrest of a New Albany resident for possession of child pornography on Thursday Afternoon.  

Detectives with the Indiana State Police - Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) task force in Sellersburg began an investigation in September of 2022 after receiving a cyber tip report from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.
