Chattahoochee High School teacher and coach arrested for child molestation

Police are asking for other possible victims to come forward.

ROSWELL, Ga. - A Chattahoochee High School teacher has been arrested and charged with child molestation, statutory rape, and enticing a child for indecent purposes.

The Cobb County Police Department contacted Roswell Police last week after an investigation revealed the alleged crimes happened within Roswell city limits.

Authorities said Preston Paris, 32 - also a volleyball coach at the high school - had inappropriate contact with the juvenile victim in an off-campus incident. They noted the victim was not a student at Chattahoochee High School where Paris worked as a social studies teacher.

In a statement, the Fulton County School District told 11Alive, "Given the allegations, he was immediately separated from our district."

No other information has been released about the investigation.

Any additional victims are asked to contact the Roswell Police Department at (770) 640-4100.
