SAN ANTONIO – A Northeast Bexar County man has been arrested on charges related to child pornography and the aggravated sexual assault of a child after a cable repairman allegedly found illegal images on his computer.
Paul Zappe, III, was arrested Thursday as the result of an investigation which began in January.
