An Orange County Public Schools teacher has been arrested, accused of having a sexual relationship with a 14-year-old student, Orlando police say.

Ethan Patrick Hickey, 25, 0f Orlando, a teacher at Edgewater High School, was taken into custody and faces several charges of sexual assault, child abuse, molestation and lewd and lascivious battery.

The 14-year-old told investigators that she and Hickey had a sexual relationship which lasted for three months beginning January 2015, and about 10-15 encounters.

Investigators were able to corroborate the teen’s story after she turned over her cellular phone that provided evidence of the illicit relationship.

Hickey was booked into the Orange County Jail on a $25,000 bond.

Investigators are asking any other possible victims to please come forward and contact the Orlando Police Department Special Victims Unit.
