A Cleveland school security guard indicted on five charges, including rape and sexual battery, was in court Wednesday for an arraignment.

Bond for 29-year-old Derrick Dugger was set at $250,000, and he was ordered to have no contact with the victim. The next pre-trial hearing was set for Dec. 12.

Dugger, a security guard at East Technical High School, was indicted on two counts of rape, two counts of sexual battery and one count of importuning, court records revealed.

Dugger was formally charged with rape last week after an investigation began earlier in November, but one Cleveland family said that they reported him months before.
