NEW BERN, N.C. (WAVY) - Deputies say a high school football and softball coach has been charged with statutory rape for having sex with a teen girl.
Sheriff Eric Tilley with the Perquimans County Sheriff's Office says 57-year-old Harrell Thach of Herford, N.C. was arrested Monday evening and charged with statutory rape for having sex with a 14-year-old girl.
