PITTSBURGH —

Police now charge Eric Fairman with sex crimes against 11 children. The count of alleged victims has been rising as the Allegheny County police investigation continues, nearly tripling in the two weeks since the first charges were filed.

Fairman is the former McKeesport math teacher and youth sports coach in Keystone Oaks and West Jefferson Hills school districts. The latest counts against Fairman include allegations of sexual assaults on children who were 13 and 14 at the time. They span from five years ago to about a month ago.
