SPARTANBURG (AP) -- An instructor at Limestone College has been arrested and charged with engaging in sex acts with a young boy while video chatting with another man over the Internet.

Limestone College Communications Director Eric Lawson says 30-year old Robert Scott Kolodzy of Gaffney was fired Saturday from his job as an assistance athletic trainer and instructor of the physical education department.

Kolodzy was arrested Thursday. The FBI says he admitted to inappropriately touching a boy while video chatting with another man from San Diego. Authorities say the crimes took place in Cherokee County from December 2010 through this month.

Kolodzy was being held Sunday at the Spartanburg County jail, and it wasn't clear if he had an attorney.
