NORMAN, Okla. (AP) _ A convicted sex offender has been arrested on new complaints of child molestation and possession of child pornography.

40-year-old Richard Bob Largent was arrested by Cleveland County investigators on Wednesday. Officials say they found hundreds of photographs of nude boys in Largent's south Oklahoma City residence.

District Attorney Tim Kuykendall says investigators served a search warrant at the house after a nine-year-old boy told his father that Largent had molested him while the two were on an outing to Lake Texoma. The father described Largent as a family friend.

Kuykendall says Largent was given a 20-year suspended sentence for a 1999 conviction on lewd molestation charges involving a 13-year-old boy.
