CLAY COUNTY, Fla. \u2013 An 83-year-old man was arrested Monday after the Clay County Sheriff\u2019s Office SWAT team served a search warrant at a Middleburg residence, according to the Sheriff\u2019s Office.<\/p>\n

The warrant was served at a home on Half Moon Circle as part of a child exploitation investigation led by the Sheriff\u2019s Office Internet Crimes Against Children unit, with assistance from the Naval Criminal Investigative Service.<\/p>\n

David Cangemi exited the residence and was detained without incident. He was interviewed by ICAC detectives while investigators processed the home for evidence.<\/p>\n

Authorities said the investigation resulted in probable cause to arrest Cangemi on a charge of lewd and lascivious battery on a victim younger than 15.<\/p>\n

Cangemi was booked into the Clay County Jail pending medical clearance. The investigation remains ongoing.<\/p>\n
