(Seneca, SC)——————-The Oconee County Sheriff’s Office arrested a Seneca man over the weekend on two counts of Criminal Sexual Conduct with a Minor – First Degree. 

31 year old Dustin Stuart Reif was booked into the Oconee County Detention Center early Saturday morning after deputies observed a Dodge truck disregard a stop sign on Evatt Road and Keowee School Road late last Friday evening. Deputies attempted a traffic stop on the vehicle but the vehicle did not pull over and proceeded to lead deputies on a pursuit. 

After the truck made contact with stop sticks that were placed by a deputy at Keowee School Road and South Cove Road, the vehicle pulled into a business parking lot. The driver, identified as Reif, was placed under arrest for Failure to Stop for a Blue Light and Disregarding a Stop Sign. 

In a separate investigation, deputies were notified late last Friday afternoon of reports of possible sexual abuse occurring to a juvenile child which involved Reif. Based upon evidence gathered as a result of the investigation, Reif was charged with inappropriately touching a four year old minor female.
