PEORIA ( 25News Now ) - A Chillicothe man pleaded not guilty in court on Thursday to a child pornography charge.

Kewan Hudson, 27, was arrested on Tuesday after police obtained a warrant to search his home. Hudson is accused of uploading child pornography online.

Police received a tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children on July 14 about the upload. The Peoria State’s Attorney’s office said Hudson allegedly admitted during an interview with police that a Kik account associated with the uploaded child pornography belonged to him and that individuals would send him the videos.

His next court date is Sept. 18.
