A Newnan man arrested on three counts of child molestation bonded out of the Coweta County Jail on Tuesday.
Kyle Clinton Gillespie, 25, is charged with aggravated child molestation, aggravated sexual battery and child molestation, according to Major Jimmy Yarbrough with the Coweta County Sheriff's Office.
All of the charges are felonies and relate to different acts committed upon the victim.
"We received a call from the victim's mom and then interviewed her and later the victim," the major said. The victim was a juvenile girl relative.
Gillespie also was interviewed and Yarbrough said Gillespie "cooperated." Gillespie was arrested Saturday and booked into the jail.
