GUILFORD COUNTY, N.C. — A Guilford County firefighter is suspended without pay after he was charged with several sex crimes.
Archdale police arrested him on two indictments, and he's being held in the Randolph County jail without bond.
Investigators said he was a caretaker and charged him with three counts of a sex act by a substitute parent, two counts of second-degree forced sex offense, sexual battery, and assault on a female.
WFMY News 2 is not sharing the suspect's name to protect the identity of his alleged victims.

The department released a statement on the matter.
"Guilford County Emergency Services takes its responsibility to provide lifesaving services to the community seriously and is committed to ensuring community trust in our public safety employees," the department said.
