Windsor man facing charges in Michigan child luring case

A Windsor man is facing charges in a child luring case that originated in Michigan.

In December 2022, the Adrian Police Department started an investigation after a report of a teenager being lured online.

The investigation revealed that an adult man allegedly attempted to solicit explicit photos of a girl he knew to be 15 years old. The suspect also sent the victim photos of himself and made requests to meet in person.

Adrian police officers traced the suspect's IP address to the Windsor area and the Windsor Police Internet Child Exploitation (ICE) Unit took over the investigation.

On October 5, the ICE Unit executed a search warrant at a home on Scarsdale Road.

A 32-year-old was arrested and charged with luring a child under 18 years old with telecommunications.
