Man arrested for sexually assaulting boy on camping trip

BASS RIVER, N.J. - July 15, 2010

New Jersey State Police charged Brian Killion, 37, of Absecon City with aggravated sexual assault, sexual assault and two counts of endangering the welfare of a child.

The assault was reported to the New Jersey State Park Police by the victim's mother following a late June camping trip Killion took with two boys, both under 13 years of age, in Bass River State Park. Killion is accused of sexually assaulting the one boy in view of the other while in a tent. The camping trip was with the consent of the boys' parents.

Yesterday, State Police detectives, members of the Burlington County Prosecutor's Office and Absecon City Police Department executed a search warrant on Killion's home on North Shore Road.

Numerous pieces of electronic and computer storage media were seized for examination by the Regional Computer Forensic Laboratory at the Hamilton Technology Center.

Previews of the equipment at the scene revealed images of child pornography, and an investigation by the Absecon Police Department is continuing.

Anyone with additional information that could forward this investigation is asked to contact State Police Detective Anthony Mason at 609-296-3132.
