A Clark County School District coach was arrested on suspicion of sexual misconduct, school police said.

Deshae Bowen-Edwards, 32, was booked into the Clark County Detention Center on charges related to sexual misconduct with a student, according to a CCSD news release.

Bowen-Edwards worked as a contractor with Communities in Schools — a drop-out prevention nonprofit organization — and, according to police, he also coached at Legacy High School for about seven years.

Earlier this month, the CCSD Police Department began investigating Bowen-Edwards, leading to the arrest. The release added that he “will no longer be allowed on campus.”
