A man has been arrested in Pahrump and charged with possession of child pornography, according to a report from the Nye County Sheriff's office.

Victor Troutman, 60, of Pahrump, was arrested Friday and booked in the Nye County jail after officers, having received a tip, obtained a search warrant and discovered images and movies depicting children, believed to be as young as 12, engaged in various sexually explicit acts with adults.

The report says Troutman subsequently admitted that he downloaded child pornography and kept the images on his computer. His bail is set at $5,000.

The investigation is continuing.

Anyone with information is urged to contact the Nye County Sheriff’s Office at 775-751-7000, attention Detective Mike Eisenloffel.
