A daycare in Butler County, Pa., has been rocked by accusations that the business's 66-year-old co-owner was caught on videotape molesting female students there who were 3- and 4-years-old at the time.

The Associated Press reports that 66-year-old Roger Young is headed to trial on charges of indecent assault and corrupting the morals of minors. He and his wife ran the daycare, called Patti Cake Childcare Center in Butler, out of their home.

AP reports that a judge who watched the security camera video on Tuesday ruled that there's sufficient evidence to send Young to trial on the charges.

Background from AP:

Prosecutors say Young molested three girls in 2010 and 2011 at Patti Cake Childcare Center in Butler. They were 3 and 4 years old at the time.

State trooper Joshua Anderson testified the videos showed Young touching the girls' genitals through their clothing, having them touch his genitals and other illicit conduct.

Young remains free on $50,000 unsecured bond.
