A Middletown man faces sexual assault charges after authorities alleged he had years of inappropriate contact with a 10-year-old under his care.

Henry M. Chuya, 20, is charged with committing acts of sexual assault and contact "several" times between 2010 and October 2013, according to a criminal complaint filed in Middletown last week.

The incidents allegedly occurred at his Knollwood Drive residence, according to authorities.
