A Youngstown man stands accused of taking photographs of himself sexually assaulting a young girl.

Fleischer sexually assaulted a minor in June 2011 and produced a visual depiction of the act, according to the indictment.

Special agents with the FBI served a search warrant at Fleischer’s Brownlee Woods home in March. He told agents he viewed child pornography images and videos on his phone using a smartphone messaging app, according to an affidavit.
