The Sumter County Sheriff's Office charged Tuesday night a 22-year-old man living near the Sumter-Clarendon line with multiple counts of criminal sexual conduct with a minor.
Ternell Tindall of 3550 Britton Brogdon Road in Sumter was charged with three counts of second-degree criminal sexual conduct with a minor for his alleged actions of sexual misconduct with an 11-year-old girl over the weekend.
Officers first learned of the incident after receiving reports that an 11-year-old girl had been taken to a local hospital for examination after informing her parent a 22-year-old man had taken advantage of her sexually on multiple occasions during the past weekend.
After an investigation, officers obtained both arrest warrants for the suspect and search warrants for the alleged crime location. Tindall was taken to the Sumter-Lee Regional Detention Center, where he will await a bond hearing. This incident remains under investigation.
