(INDIANAPOLIS) - An Indianapolis high school English teacher has been charged with child molestation and battery.

Michael Swanson is accused of molesting several teen boys over a period of seven years.

Two of the victims were 13 years old at the time, while a third victim was 14 years old.

Swanson was arrested Wednesday.

Marion county Prosecutor Carl Brizzi says what makes this case even worse is that Swanson was also a youth minister.
