Gary Born, 48 (pictured, left), a trooper since 1991, was arrested Tuesday by Jefferson County sheriff's deputies, Colorado State Patrol spokesman Jim Wolfinbarger said Wednesday.

Born faces felony charges of sexual assault on a child, sexual assault on a child by a person in a position of trust and sexual assault on a child as a pattern of behavior. He was released on $25,000 bond.

Born has an unlisted phone number and could not be reached for comment. He is scheduled to appear in court Tuesday.

The alleged offenses occurred when Born was off-duty and involved someone he knew, Jefferson County sheriff's spokesman Jim Shires said. He would not elaborate.

Born has worked mostly in the patrol's Golden, Colo., office. In May 2001 he was assigned to the patrol's investigations section in Lakewood, Colo.
