A Huntley School District 158 bus driver was arrested on charges of possessing child sexual abuse material, the district said.

John Roth, 43, faces 10 counts stemming from a tip submitted to a phone number registered in Huntley. A search of Roth’s home turned up videos that led to the charges, according to the district.

The district placed Roth on administrative leave following the arrest.

The district said there is no information indicating the material involved any district students.

Investigators have not said whether additional charges are expected. The district said it is cooperating with the investigation and will provide updates to families as they become available.
