The arrest comes after Darien Police were contacted by New Canaan Police on Friday, Aug.13, in regards to an investigation they were conducting regarding Yonkers, said Darien Police Sgt. James Palmieri.

During the course of the investigation, detectives from New Canaan became aware of the possibility that Yonkers had been in contact with minor children residing in Darien, Palmieri said.

A further investigation revealed evidence that Yonkers had made inappropriate and unlawful contact with, and had taken video/images of the minors, he added.

A warrant was obtained and Yonkers turned himself in to Darien Police on Tuesday.

He was charged with:

  • Two counts risk of injury to a minor;
