By Kim Glovas

BURLINGTON, N.J. (CBS) -- An officer in the US Air Force has been arrested in Burlington County, NJ on child pornography charges.

Master sergeant Gerard Cameron, 41, of Olive Street in Burlington City, is charged with distribution of pornographic materials and three counts of endangering the welfare of children.

The Burlington County prosecutor's office says Cameron downloaded numerous images of child pornography onto his home computer and used file-sharing software to make it available to others.

Police arrested Cameron at his home yesterday.  Several other digital devices were also seized during his arrest.

Cameron was being held in the Burlington County Jail in lieu of $100,000 cash bail.

If he makes bail, he will be forbidden from using the Internet or having any contact with minors.
