Second online luring arrest in Bend in past week
BEND, Ore. (KTVZ) – A 52-year-old Bend man was arrested Thursday, accused of sending sexually explicit photos online and arranging to meet and bring methamphetamine to a “14-year-old girl,” who actually was a Bend police officer.
On Tuesday, the officer identified the man as someone trying to contact someone he believed to be a 14-year-old girl, on a social media app, Lt. Clint Burleigh said. They had a conversation that was sexual in nature and agreed to bring the drugs to a meeting on Thursday.
Bend police detectives assisted in the investigation and located the man on Thursday near the arranged meeting location, near the intersection of Southwest Brookswood Boulevard and Lodgepole Drive.
