A Lincoln High School teacher is arrested for reportedly preying on a young boy.

Thomas Price of Shinnston faces two counts of displaying and distributing obscene matter to a minor.

Senior Trooper B.W. Claypool couldn't release if the boy is a student of Price's, but they did arrest price at Lincoln High School around 3 p.m. Thursday afternoon.

Magistrate Warren "Gizzy" Davis arraigned him shortly after says if convicted Price could face five years behind bars and $25,000 on each count.

From January to August 2008 through text messaging he reportedly asked the kid to have sex with him, plus sent him links to pornographic websites.

Trooper Claypool told us he did seize Price's computer for evidence, and bond is set at $100,000.
