Long works at a school in the Kingman Unified School District, the sheriff's office said. Other details about Long's employment were not released.

The sheriff's office said its investigation into Long began in September after a device belonging to Long was seized.

Investigators found images of "child pornography" on the device, the sheriff's office said.

Investigators are working to identify potential victims.

"Detectives are working closely with Kingman Unified School District, where Long is currently employed, to ensure that the images located do not contain any local youth," the sheriff's office said.

Long is facing charges of sexual exploitation of a minor, the sheriff's office said.

This is a developing story; additional details will be added as they become available.
