A Colorado high school teacher, who doubled up as a tennis coach, has been arrested for reportedly asking his students to send him their topless photos.

According to an arrest affidavit, a parent was going through her 16-year-old daughter's Facebook account when she found a private message of Randy Majors asking her to send nude pictures of herself and to not tell anyone.

On being confronted by police, Majors, who taught and coached at the Fruita 8-9 School in Fruita, reportedly admitted asking a few girls for such photos, CBS News reported.

He also allowed police to take his computer, on which police reportedly discovered images of current or former students and members of the tennis team.

Majors is facing three counts of sexual exploitation of a child and five counts of attempted sexual exploitation of a child.
