  Lewis Thompson was convicted in March 2005 of sexual conduct with a minor. The victim was identified as a 15-year-old girl.

  Thompson is considered to be a Level 2 offender who poses a medium risk of reoffending.

  He is 5 feet 9 inches, 140 pounds and has brown hair and hazel eyes, YCSO said.

  State law requires law enforcement agencies to notify the public when certain sex offenders change addresses.
