A fugitive apprehension team is searching for Pugh, who authorities believe lives in New York City.

Details of the allegations weren’t immediately available.

In June 2013, Pugh abandoned his council seat and fled Detroit after a mother claimed he had preyed on her 17-year-old son, lavished him with gifts and sent sexually explicit text messages. Pugh also paid the teenager to take a nude video of himself.

In November 2015, a jury awarded the victim $250,000 in a civil case. Pugh was not criminally charged.
