Man faces additional sex charges against child

FAYETTEVILLE According to a release issued by the Cumberland County Sheriff's Office Monday, detectives filed additional charges against 46-year-old Tony Daren Vanord.

He is charged with three additional counts of taking indecent liberties with a child. His bond is set at $65,000.

Vanord was initially arrested on March 19 after he reportedly invited a 6-year-old child into a camper and touched him inappropriately.

At that time, authorities charged him with taking indecent liberties with a child, crimes against nature and first-degree statutory sex offense.

Authorities say the child did not report the incident because Vanord lived in his camper on the property owned by the victim's family. Vanord allegedly threatened to hurt the child's family if the child told anyone what happened.

Charges filed earlier this year against Vanord in this particular case include; taking indecent liberties with a child, crimes against nature and first degree statutory sex offense.

Vanord will make a first court appearance today.
