Fresno County Sheriff’s detectives have arrested a Fresno man employed at a local ice cream shop on a felony charge of possession and distribution of child pornography.

Following up on a tip, members of the Central Valley Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force arrested Kyle Medders, 24, at his home on the 5000 block of N. Gentry Ave.

The arrest came after a search warrant uncovered numerous videos of infants and toddlers being raped, the Sheriff’s Office said. Medders’ bail is set at $20,000.

Sheriff’s Office officials said they are not naming the ice cream business because it did not play a role in the investigation.

Authorities said they have no evidence of Medders having physical contact with children.

Sheriff’s officials are asking anyone with additional information to contact Lt. Brandon Pursell at (559) 600-8029 or Valley Crime Stoppers at (559) 498-7867.
