A 50-year-old man faces charges after police claim he reportedly touched a teenager inappropriately and said he wanted to marry her.
The allegations were detailed in an Horry County Police Department report regarding the arrest of John Tyrone Page, of Conway.
Page is charged with second degree criminal sexual conduct and disseminating harmful material or exhibiting harmful performance to minors, according to online booking records.
According to the report, the victim claims a staff member approached her in early 2017 and began making inappropriate comments to her while a resident at Seacoast Academy.
