Ada County Sheriff's Office arrested 18-year-old Owen Alexander Sawyer on multiple charges of lewd conduct with a child and possession of explicit material.
Investigators say Sawyer used the Snapchat username 'iloveidaho' to contact potential victims.
Authorities believe Sawyer may have additional victims and are asking for information from the public.
Sawyer faces two felony counts of lewd conduct with a child under 16 and one count of possession of child sexually exploitative material.

Idaho law classifies lewd conduct with a minor under 16 as a felony with severe penalties and lifelong sex-offender registration.
Police say the investigation started after reports of lewd conduct and that Sawyer used online handles to reach victims.
Authorities urged the public to contact the Ada County Dispatch with any information.
The case reflects Idaho's stricter stance on child sexual abuse and the need for community tips.
