The other two children mentioned in the report are scheduled for their own interviews at the Children's Advocacy Center, which had yet to take place at the time of the officer's report.

The report states that, following the interview with the child reporting the alleged crimes, the officer spoke with members of Horton's family who recalled an incident in which they witnessed a young girl straddling Horton on his bed and the two were "humping each other." They further reported incidents in which Horton was observed tickling the girl and the two other children in their private areas.

The officer attempted to speak with Horton but states in the report that the man has been avoiding efforts to contact him. The officer was informed by family members that Horton was hiding out in a cabin and had recently gotten his gun out of a pawn shop. It was confirmed that Horton had gotten a Beretta handgun out of pawn shop on Jan. 27, the same day officers received the report from the Children's Division.

As of Wednesday afternoon, officers were still looking for Horton and Park Hills Det. Craig Newberry created a social media post asking for information leading to the man's whereabouts.

The post states that Horton has been seen driving a red Jeep Compass with Missouri License plates, HF7 H9K.

Anyone who has seen Horton or can provide information regarding the man's location is asked to notify the police immediately at 573-431-3122 or 573-431-3131.
