BREMERTON — Bremerton police arrested a 24-year-old Bremerton man at his home March 22 on suspicion of possession of depictions of minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct.

The arrest was made after an investigation by Bremerton police detectives, who earlier this year received a tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children that child pornography was being downloaded to an address in Bremerton, according to Police Chief Steven Strachan.

Further investigation in conjunction with the Internet service provider helped reveal the identity and location of the suspect. The suspect was interviewed by detectives. He confessed to downloading and possessing child pornography.

The suspect was booked into the Kitsap County Jail for Possession of Depictions of Minors Engaged in Sexually Explicit Conduct; his bail was set at $50,000.
