A Mustang man is facing 10 counts of child pornography in an indictment unsealed in federal court in Oklahoma City.

William Lawrence West is accused of coercing two young girls into taking part in sexually explicit conduct between December 2006 and February 2007.

The indictment says one girl appeared to be about 12 and the other about 15.

West also faces five counts of child sexual abuse involving the girls in Canadian County. Court documents say he was arrested in January after one of the girls told a teacher West was abusing her.

West faces up to 50 years in prison if convicted.
