An Oliver Springs man is accused of sexually abusing and impregnating a girl under the age of 12.
Authorities in Gilchrist County, Florida, said the abuse happened when David Andrew Cox, 55, was visiting family there.
They were notified in November of a minor child who became pregnant as the result of alleged sexual abuse. After the baby was born in January, DNA from the infant was compared to DNA obtained from Cox.
After that analysis was complete, a warrant was issued for Cox's arrest.
He is being held on a $1 million bond.
