Kyle Wade Guthrie was arrested on Tuesday. He's charged with online solicitation of a minor.
Guthrie was previously employed by KBST in Big Spring for the past year.
Howard County Sheriff Stan Parker says that Guthrie, 27, made contact with a 16-year-old victim in a sexually explicit manner using electronic communication.
The Howard County Sheriff's Office first got word of the alleged activity on February 3rd.
Parker also says Guthrie might have solicited more victims online.
The Howard County Sheriff's Office and the Department of Homeland Security executed a search warrant of Guthrie's home Tuesday. Authorities seized several electronic devices in that raid.
The seized devices will be sent for forensic analysis, and more charges are possible.
As of Tuesday, Guthrie is being held on $20,000 bond.
The investigation continues.
