(Polk County, Fla.) – A Milan man is jailed in Florida on allegations that he inappropriately touched a child.

Terrill “Terry” Boggs, 39, was arrested in Dearborn County on August 1 on a warrant issued out of Polk County, Florida on July 31.

According to a court affidavit, Boggs was on a trip in Florida in June when he allegedly touched an underage girl. Investigators with the Polk County Sheriff’s Office say they viewed a cell phone photo taken by the victim showing Boggs’ hand in the victim’s shorts.
