A former Catholic high school teacher in Daytona Beach turned himself in this week for an alleged sexual offense that happened nearly two years ago involving a student who has since graduated.

Daytona Beach police were contacted on May 11, 2023 by the parent of a student who has since graduated from Father Lopez Catholic High School about an alleged sexual offense that happened a year prior between Noah Matthews Cabiac, 42, and the student. The day before, Cabiac was fired from the school. 

After a thorough investigation, police issued an arrest warrant for Cabiac on March 11 and charged him with sexual offense by an authority figure and engaging in lewd contact with a student.

No other details about the case were immediately released.
