A Wilkinsburg man pleaded guilty Monday in federal court in Pittsburgh to having child pornography, prosecutors said.

U.S. Attorney Scott W. Brady said Tuesday that Jason Gerade Harris, Jr., 25, pleaded guilty before Senior U.S. District Judge Arthur J. Schwab.

Prosecutors said FBI agents got a tip from a Minnesota woman, who said she found naked images of her 7-year-old son sent over Skype. Agents said a 13-year-old boy in Tampa was enticed to send explicit photos of his 6-year-old brother. The investigations led agents to Harris.

Schwab scheduled sentencing for Oct. 22.
