A Ewing, Va. man is behind bars after police say he had sexual intercourse and contact with three children under the age of 12. Ernie Pittman, 51, was charged with two counts of first-degree rape (victim less than 12 years of age) and two counts sexual abuse (victim less than 12 years of age).

According to the criminal complaint, one victim was a female and the other two victims were males. Pittman engaged in sexual intercourse with the female victim on two separate occasions. She was roughly six years old at the time of the incident. He also allegedly made sexual contact with the victim.
