State police arrest man on child pornography charges

The Rhode Island State Police say they have arrested an East Providence man on child pornography charges.

John J. Littlefield, 57, of 39 Breeze Ave., was arrested by detectives at about 9:30 a.m. yesterday, a police news release says. He was charged with possession of child pornography and with transmission of child pornography.

A judge set $10,000 bail at district court arraignment, the police say.

The arrest resulted from a Missouri Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force referral and through forensic analysis by members of Rhode Island's state police computer crimes unit.
