NEWARK, Del. (AP) - A Newark man has been charged with distributing child pornography online.    

The Delaware Attorney General's Office announced charges Thursday against 42-year-old John Figura. He's facing 25 counts of dealing in child pornography and is being held on $1.5 million bail.  

The office says its Child Predator Task Force gathered evidence against Figura and searched his home on Wednesday. Investigators seized several computers, digital materials and other physical evidence. The office says the investigators found pornographic images and videos of children.
