MEDFORD TWP. -- A township man is facing child pornography charges after he photographed a teenage girl, police said.
Marcos Morales, 38, was arrested Wednesday on charges of endangering the welfare of a child, according to a release from Medford Township police.
The investigation began April 8 when police received a report of "inappropriate contact" between Morales and a girl described only as a teenager under the age of 18.
Investigators determined that Morales had taken photographs of her and a search of his possessions revealed that he possessed additional child pornography, police said.
Morales was placed in Burlington County Jail and is awaiting a detention hearing, police said.
