(Mayville, ND) -- More information is being released regarding the death of a Mayville man more than a week ago.

On January 18th, 59-year-old Steve Volla died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Now it's been revealed that the North Dakota Bureau of Criminal Investigation had a warrant to search Volla's home related to a child pornography case.

BCI says their investigation into Volla began back in November after a tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.
