LEESBURG, Va. — Antonio G. Ford, 28, a teacher at Lovettsville Elementary School, was arrested on charges of solicitation of a minor, Leesburg Police Department officials confirmed.
The investigation began in March 2025 when Florida’s Orange County Sheriff’s Office tracked a suspect linked to a minor solicitation case to Leesburg. This prompted local authorities to open their own investigation.
With help from the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office, Ford was taken into custody at the elementary school where he works. He was then transported to the Loudoun County Adult Detention Center and is currently being held without bond.
Authorities continue to investigate the case.
