Michigan -- A 58-year-old former taekwondo instructor of Scio Township is facing additional sexual assault and child porn charges, according to annarbor.com.

In January, he was initially accused of of assaulting a 12-year-old boy sexually while driving.

When police executed a search warrant at the man's home, they found child pornography, officials said.

Then a second victim, now 19, came forward, accusing the man of sexually assaulting him in 2004. The suspect was teaching at a martial arts school in Ann Arbor at the time, and the alleged victim was a student there, according to police.
