Grange, a convicted sex offender, arrived Monday morning to the state police station in Bensalem to register that he was living on Pacific Avenue in Bristol Township. While he was meeting with troopers, it was discovered he had an active warrant out of New Jersey and had actually moved to Bristol Township in June and failed to immediately register, according to a press release.

A sex offender database showed Grange was charged previously with sexually assaulting a minor in New Jersey in 1998. The 46 year old is assigned as a Tier III sex offender, which means he has to register with state police for the rest of his life.
