After receiving an online tip, police investigated Jamie Lee Flewellen and seized digital evidence from his home, according to a Tuesday release from the Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force of MSP’s Computer Crimes Unit.

Flewellen was arrested and charged with aggravated possession of child sexually abusive material and using a computer to commit a crime, MSP said. He was arraigned Monday.
