WALPOLE, Mass. (AP) -- Police are searching for former New England Patriots player and high school football coach Danny Villa, who is accused of raping a child.
The Wrentham District Court on Friday issued a warrant for Villa's arrest on for three counts of rape of a child over 14 and three counts of enticing a minor.
The 44-year-old Villa had been working as a football coach at Walpole High School. He resigned Tuesday, hours after the school superintendent confronted him over allegations of criminal misconduct filed by a parent a day earlier.
Villa led one of the most successful high school football programs in the state, capping an undefeated season with a championship earlier this month.
Villa played in the NFL for 12 seasons, including six with the Patriots.
