WAKE FOREST, N.C. — Arrest warrants were issued Thursday for a Wake Forest man, charging him with four counts of third-degree sexual exploitation of a minor, police said.

Robert Joseph D’Antonio, of 1121 Coram Fields Road, is expected to surrender to police Friday.

Police said they received a tip that D’Antonio’s personal computer contained pornographic videos involving children. Following a preliminary investigation, police said they seized the computer’s hard drive, which will be submitted to the State Bureau of Investigation for a thorough examination.

More charges might be filed in the case, police said.
