An Elko man was booked on half a million dollars bail Friday on a warrant charging sexual assault on a child.
Kevin J. Mentaberry, 40, is charged with one count of sexual assault on a child younger than 16, with alternative counts of statutory sexual seduction and lewdness with a 14- or 15-year-old child.
He is accused of inappropriately touching an underage female in his home on New Year’s Eve, while intoxicated.
Police were contacted more than a week after the incident by a counselor.
