A Huntington man is charged with possession of child pornography after troopers say he took his laptop to a retail store for repair.
Court documents say 51-year old Scott Michael Wedo took his computer to the Best Buy because he thought it had a virus.
State Police say a technician at the store found 5 images of child pornography along with a homemade movie clip depicting a family - children and parents - involved in sexual conduct.
Troopers arrested Wedo Tuesday night. He is currently in the Western Regional Jail on a $150,000 dollar cash bond only. His preliminary hearing is set for next week.
