IREDELL COUNTY, N.C. (WBTV) – A man has been arrested after Dropbox notified the Iredell County Sheriff’s Office about possible child pornography being uploaded to an account.

Dropbox obtained the IP address, account name, email address, and physical address for the account. The information was forwarded over and reviewed by the sheriff’s office.

According to a release from Iredell County Sheriff’s Office, a deputy arrived at the home of Bradley Jay Pitts. Officials say after speaking with Pitts and receiving information during the investigation, authorities obtained arrest warrants for five counts of felony third-degree sexual exploitation of minor.

Pitts was arrested Friday and issued a $30,000 secure bond on the charges.
