A man awaits sentencing after he was convicted for his role in the sexual abuse of a young child in Wicomico County.
The Office of the State's Attorney for Wicomico County says on July 13, a jury convicted 31-year-old Bruce Bilal Anding, of Delaware, of sexual abuse of a minor and three counts of sexual offense in the third degree. The charges stem from an September 2017 incident.

Sentencing has been delayed pending the completion of a sex offender evaluation.
The Delaware man will be required to register as a tier III sex offender for life.
According to authorities, the charges are felonies and carry possible maximum sentences of 25 years for sexual abuse of a minor and 10 years each for the third degree sex offenses.
