A Lodi man has been charged with possession of child sexual abuse material following a Bergen County cyber crimes investigation, prosecutors announced Friday.

Jesus Arellano, 20, was arrested Thursday and charged with one count of possession of child sexual abuse material, according to the Bergen County Prosecutor's Office.

Prosecutors said members of the office's Cyber Crimes Unit executed a search warrant at Arellano's home during an investigation into online child sexual abuse material. Investigators say Arellano used the internet to view, download and possess 191 images depicting nude or sexually explicit prepubescent and pubescent children.

Arellano was arrested in Paramus and taken to the Bergen County Jail pending his first appearance in Superior Court.
