Arrest Reports

A 19-year-old Hernando man was arrested Friday after allegedly admitting to a sexual relationship with a 13-year-old Beverly Hills girl.

Michael Johns, of North Cannes Point, faces charges of lewd and lascivious battery on a child 12 to 16 years of age and transmitting harmful materials to a minor, according to a Citrus County Sheriff’s Office report.

On April 25, a sheriff’s office investigator received information about inappropriate photographs exchanged between two students at a local private school and interviewed Johns and the girl Wednesday.
