LITTLE VALLEY, N.Y. (WIVB) - A Dunkirk man who once taught at Salamanca High School is heading to jail for exchanging indecent material with an underage girl.

Shane Riethmiller, 39, was convicted of sending and receiving nude pictures from the girl over a period of three months in 2011. Riethmiller was a science teacher at the high school at the time.

He was sentenced to six months in jail by State Supreme Court Judge William Boller for disseminating indecent materials to a minor and will spend five years on probation after his jail term. He was given a three-month concurrent sentence for third degree sex abuse.

He was also required to surrender his teaching certificate and will register as a Level 1 sex offender.
