Lenoir County man charged with sex offender registration violation

A Lenoir County man was arrested on a warrant alleging he failed to report a change of address as required by North Carolina law, the Lenoir County Sheriff’s Office said.

A sheriff’s office SCARR detective began investigating Oct. 28 during a residence check at Anthony Harris’ registered address. The detective determined Harris had moved earlier in October and had not reported his new address, according to LCSO.

A warrant was issued on Oct. 30. Harris was arrested on Nov. 4 and taken before a magistrate, who set a $50,000 secured bond.

Harris is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.
