Ex-bus driver pleads not guilty to porn charges

A former bus driver who was contracted to run Moorhead school routes has pleaded not guilty to felony child pornography charges.

Fifty-year-old Eric Gunnar Johnson of Dilworth faces 13 counts of possessing child pornography.

The Forum of Fargo, N.D., reports Johnson entered his plea Thursday in Clay County District Court. His next court appearance is set for Jan. 18.

Court records say police allegedly found more than 1,000 images and videos of minors engaging in sexual conduct or posing explicitly.
