BANGKOK, Thailand: An American man wanted for rape and other alleged crimes in the U.S. was arrested in Thailand, where he had been working as an elementary school English teacher, police said Monday.

Thai police arrested Brian Michael Jones on Saturday in the northern province of Nan, where he had been teaching for more than nine months, said Lt. Col. Wirot Weerasakul.

The Thai News Agency reported that the FBI had issued an arrest warrant for Jones in 1999.

He is suspected of having raped women and sexually harassed children in the U.S. state of Nevada, TNA reported.

He went to Thailand in March 2006, TNA said.

Jones is expected to be extradited to the U.S. to face charges, Wirot said.
