ALBANY, Ga. — A soldier sought in sex-related offenses in North Carolina has turned himself in to Albany police.

45-year-old Laurence Clifton surrendered Wednesday. He was being held in the Dougherty County Jail where he awaits extradition.

Clifton, according to authorities, is wanted in Fayetteville, N.C., where he faces 40 counts of sex charges involving a minor. Police said the charges are related to child pornography.

Police believe Clifton is still in the Army.

A date for his return to North Carolina was not immediately set.
