Former Dunbar High School Employee Charles Young Accused of Child Sex Abuse

At least three boys have come forward claiming they were sexually abused by a track coach and former staffer at a D.C. high school.

Charles Allen Young, 34, had worked in the front office at Dunbar Senior High School in Northwest when he allegedly sexually abused a student in November 2013.

That student, D.C. police said, came forward recently after hearing two other boys claim they were sexually abused by Young.

Young had worked as the school's community development director and had also helped with coaching the track team.

He was arrested Friday, but had resigned from his position at the school in October. He's facing first-degree child sex abuse charges.

Officials believe Young may have had more victims during his time with D.C. Public Schools. Prior to working at Dunbar, he held a three-week tenure with United Way of the National Capital Area.
