DALLAS, Texas — A 61-year-old Chillicothe man was arrested near Dallas, Texas this week for online solicitation of a minor.
The Denton County Sheriff’s office said Alexander Ramey, Chillicothe, initiated contact online with who he believed to be the mother of a 14-year-old girl.
“The communications were mostly sexual in nature and eventually escalated to the arrangement of a meeting with the mother and the 14-year-old for the purposes of engaging in sex with the minor girl,” the department said in a press release.
The Denton County Sheriff’s Office Human Trafficking Unit obtained an arrest warrant for Ramey, an airline mechanic, who was in the Dallas Fort Worth area for job training.
Ramey was taken into custody at an area hotel and charged with online solicitation of a minor, according to the sheriff’s office.
He is being held in the Denton County Jail.
