A search is underway for an 18-year-old man charged with performing sexual conduct in the presence of a minor and residential entry in an incident involving a 13-year-old girl.

It happened on Tuesday, Sep. 17, when the victim told investigators she woke up to a man, suspected to be Kent Butler, 18, in her room using his phone to take pictures or videos of her, according to court documents.

The victim screamed and Butler left through a window, the court documents stated.

Outside, police found pants and underwear that belong to the victim. They also matched fingerprints to Butler.

Anybody with information about Butler’s whereabouts, is asked to contact the St. Joseph County Special Victim’s Unit or Crime Stoppers at 574-288-STOP.
