McKinney (TX) – A 45-year-old Plano firefighter faces two child indecency charges and a charge of aggravated sexual assault of a child.

Plano Fire-Rescue Lieutenant Larry Combest, who had already been charged with one count of indecency, faces a second charge after detectives allegedly discovered another instance of indecency with a child 10 years ago.

According to McKinney Police Public Information Officer Sabrina Boston, on Dec. 9, the department was made aware of allegations by two children that they had been touched and fondled by a neighbor. Detectives determined the suspect, who is a family friend of the victims, has a child close in age to the neighbor’s children and would occasionally watch them overnight.

On December 21, Combest, 45, was arrested without incident on a charge of indecency with a child and his bond was set at $100,000.
