TOLEDO, Ohio — A 41-year-old man accused of having sexual contact with a teen was arraigned in Toledo Municipal Court Friday morning.
According to court records, Antero Dyer is accused of abusing a girl, age 13 turning 14 at the time, up to five times over an eight months span in 2021 and 2022. The girl then became pregnant and gave birth to Dyer's child.
Police were able to confirm Dyer was the father due to DNA evidence.
Dyer was arrested Thursday morning and is charged with unlawful sexual conduct with a minor.
A judge set Dyer's bond at $100,000 Friday morning and ordered him to have no contact with the victim. Dyer has not posted bond as of Friday afternoon. He is scheduled to be back in court on July 27.
In June Toledo police asked for the public's help in locating Dyer, whom they identified as a sex offender who had failed to update his current address.
Dyer was convicted of sex crimes in 2006 according to the Ohio Sex Offender Registry.
