(WWJ) — A man is behind bars after police raided a Macomb County home on Friday as part of a child pornography investigation.

Detectives with the Macomb Area Computer Enforcement (MACE) and Sheriff’s Enforcement Team (SET) task forces executed a search warrant Friday at a home on Sunny Brook Lane in Richmond, near the border with St. Clair County.

The raid came after the MACE Unit received a tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children that the suspect, whose name has not been released, had uploaded multiple CSAM videos and images to the internet.

The 37-year suspect was arrested without incident, according to the Macomb County Sheriff’s Office.

Detectives seized two laptops and two cell phones from the home during Friday’s raid, officials said.

Authorities are continuing the investigation and reviewing the digital evidence seized Friday.

He remains held at the Macomb County Jail and is expected to be arraigned next week on charges of aggravated possession of CSAM and using a computer to commit a crime.

No other details surrounding the case have been released.
