Marc Donald Soucy, a 59-year-old engineer with the Cary Fire Department, was arrested Wednesday evening and booked on two counts of second-degree sexual exploitation of a minor, according to police. The arrest stems from an investigation tied to an incident reported last October and has sparked questions inside a department where Soucy has worked for more than two decades. He remains in custody as investigators continue to process evidence.
According to WRAL, warrants allege Soucy duplicated sexual images that showed a female juvenile between approximately 10 and 13 years old. Public records reviewed by the outlet list Soucy as a fire engineer with the Cary Fire Department since November 2001. The outlet reports the charges are based on evidence collected during an ongoing probe that began after the October report.
He was taken into custody shortly after 5 p.m. Wednesday, ABC11 reports. Authorities are asking anyone with information to contact Cary Crimestoppers at (919) 460-4636 or submit tips online.
