Cedar Creek man is accused of sexually abusing a girl under 10 years old

A Cedar Creek man was arrested Monday on allegations that he sexually abused a girl under the age of 10 at least three times in 2022 and 2023, court records show.

Kevin Lee Edge, 35, is charged with multiple counts, including second-degree sex offenses and indecent liberties with a child, according to court records.

According to an arrest warrant, the child told investigators in March that she had been sexually abused in a shed when she was nine years old; just before she turned 10, when they were riding ATVs through the woods; and a third time in a swimming pool. The file indicates that the victim did not know when the pool assault occurred, but the other assaults occurred in the summer of 2022 and 2023.
