Man charged with child abuse

CUMBERLAND COUNTY (WTVD) -- Detectives have charged an Autryville man with nine counts of taking indecent liberties with a child.

Police say 51-year-old Ronnie Collins was arrested on Friday.

Investigators say Collins' 11-year-old victim claims the encounters happened between January 1 and September 30 of this year.

The victim says Collins would give her a back massage and would move his hands to inappropriate areas of her body.

She said it happened on numerous occasions, while she was a visitor in his home.

Collins is being held under a $90,000 secured bond in the Cumberland County Detention Center.

He is expected to make a first court appearance on Monday.
