Bensalem Man, Anthony Troupe, Facing Charges For Allegedly Sexually Assaulting Two Children
BUCKS COUNTY, Pa. (CBS) -- A man who worked as a special ed assistant is charged with sexually assaulting two children. The suspect is 33-year-old Anthony Troupe of Bensalem.
He was originally arrested in March on child pornography charges.
Detectives later identified two children who they say were sexually assaulted by Troupe.
The victims are not affiliated with the Hatboro-Horsham School District, where Troupe was employed through an outside company.
"This is a bad guy that we want to make sure stays off of the street. We want to make sure he can't assault any more children and if there are any more victims out there, we want to bring justice to them and their families," Bensalem Township public safety director Fred Harran said.
Troupe is currently behind bars at the Bucks County Correctional Facility.
On Tuesday, the Hatboro-Horsham School District said it "will continue to prioritize the safety of our students through the investigation. We recognize that this is upsetting to our school families and faculty. Counseling services and support will be made available for students and staff. Anyone who has information pertaining to these or other related crimes should contact the Bensalem Police Department, 215-633-3700, or the Horsham Police Department, 215-643-8284."
