30-year-old Jeremy Conner of Baton Rouge, who’s been serving as the Westgate High School band director, has been arrested on a charge of indecent behavior with a juvenile for his alleged involvement with a 16-year-old girl, according to our news partners at KATC.

Conner was allegedly found hiding in the teenager’s closet after Ascension Parish Sheriff’s deputies say he had allegedly been sending inappropriate text messages to her numerous times since last year.

The girl is not a student at Westgate High. Conner’s considered absent without leave, according to Iberia Parish Schools Superintendent Dale Henderson.
