A man was indicted by a Pulaski County grand jury last week on sexual abuse charges after allegedly having sexual contact with a minor.

Chief Deputy Larry Wesley with the Pulaski County Sheriff’s Department confirmed that the victim was a family member, but he could not provide any further details.
Newsome is being held on a $50,000 cash bond.
