PASCO COUNTY, Fla. -- Deputies have arrested a school bus driver for allegedly asking a student rider for inappropriate/nude photos.

According to reports, the 16-year-old victim from Anclote High School began texting with her bus driver, 49-year-old Paul King, between October 13, 2014 and November 5, 2014.

King eventually asked the victim for nude photos. He also sent the student graphic texts.

Another student witnessed these texts and graphic messages and King later admitted to these conversations and the sexually explicit messages.

The text messages came to light after the victim reported the incidents to her school resource officer who is also a Pasco County Deputy.

King is charged with use of computer to solicit a minor and the transmission of material harmful to a minor. He is being held on two $5,000 bonds.

We're told that King has been driving school buses for nine years and they're looking into the possibility there could be other victims out there.
