FORD COUNTY – Agents with the Kansas Bureau of Investigation (KBI) arrested a Kansas law enforcement officer for child sex crimes.

On Friday, May 30, just before 7 a.m., KBI agents arrested 42-year-old Erik Lalicker, of Ashland, in Dodge City. Lalicker was arrested for seven counts of sexual exploitation of a child, according to a media release from the KBI.

Lalicker served as a Kansas Gaming and Racing Commission (KGRC) Enforcement Agent. Lalicker is currently on administrative leave pending the investigation.

The KBI Child Victims Unit began investigating after a cyber tip was submitted to National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC).

Following the arrest, Lalicker was booked into the Ford County Jail on a $75,000 bond.  All subjects are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
