BALTIMORE — We're learning more about a Baltimore City Public School teacher accused of sexually assaulting a child.
Charging documents say the victim is a 12-year-old girl who was reported missing on June 21.
The girl reportedly left her mother a note stating she was heading to Pennsylvania to meet a friend.
Police learned the girl used another person's phone to keep in touch with a man she'd been talking to.
Records from that phone turned up a number belonging to 24-year-old Lewis Laury Jr.

This led investigators to Laury's apartment, which happens to be in the same complex where the girl lives.
Laury was not home at the time, but the girl was. WMAR-2 News is not publishing the victim's name due to her age.
During an interview with detectives, the girl claimed to have told Laury she was 22-years-old.
She admitted to having consensual unprotected sex numerous times at Laury's apartment.
Due to their nearly 12-year age difference, police charged Laury with second-degree rape of a juvenile and third-degree sex offense.
According to Laury's Facebook page, he's a MERVO alumni that went onto graduate from Towson University, before teaching U.S. history at his high school Alma mater.
He appears to have last been active on Facebook June 29.
One post on June 26 stated "I keep attracting females who fight demons . . . God, I must be an exorcist . . ."
In a letter to parents and staff, Mervo principal Jermaine Skinner said safety of all students is vital to maintaining a good learning environment.
"I can assure you that our Mervo team and City Schools take this matter seriously. City Schools' Human Capitol Office is aware of the arrest and take appropriate action."
Laury is currently being held without bail. He faces 30 years behind bars if convicted.
