Employees at a Tulsa charter school called police Wednesday after a 15-year-old student told them she'd been sexually abused by a family member for years.

After investigating, police took 63-year-old Don Leonard into custody.

According to Tulsa County Jail records, the teen told investigators Leonard had repeatedly molested her over the past two years.

Police searched Leonard's home, confiscating a cell phone, a computer and other evidence.

Leonard was questioned and arrested.

Bond for Don Leonard is $50,000. He has a court appearance set for April 17, 2013. .
