Police say that a security guard who worked at a Cleveland high school is accused of raping multiple students.
Derrick Dugger, 29, is charged with rape, a first-degree felony. He is being held in the Cuyahoga County Jail on $300,000 bond after his first court appearance on Saturday.
Authorities say the 29-year-old guard at East Tech High School is charged with rape and is being held in jail on $300,000 bond.
A spokeswoman for the Cleveland Metropolitan School District tells Cleveland.com the security guard is on unpaid leave pending the outcome of the case.
Court records say the man forced a 15-year-old girl to perform oral sex on him in one case. Officials say the suspect tracked the victims on social media and sent them several inappropriate messages.
