A former wrestling coach at Newark Academy in Livingston has been charged with sexually assaulting a 15-year-old, according to the Essex County Prosecutor’s Office.

John Kane, 39, of Sparta, faces four counts of sexual assault and two counts of endangering the welfare of a child.

Prosecutors say Kane transported the victim to a parking lot at St. Barnabas Medical Center in Livingston on April 26, where the alleged sexual assault occurred. The victim is not a student at Newark Academy.

The prosecutor’s office said Kane was previously involved with the Livingston Youth Wrestling Program, the West Essex Regional School District, the township of Livingston and The Work Family Connection, an after-school program serving Morris, Warren, Union, Somerset and Hunterdon counties.
