A random check of a man’s mobile phone stopped a planned meeting that police say could have ended in tragedy. Police detained the man after it was discovered he had arranged to meet a 12-year-old girl. The arrest followed the mobile phone check, which prevented the meeting from going ahead. Investigators treated the case as an offence linked to arranging contact with a child for a face-to-face meeting. The man was taken into custody during the police action connected to the planned meeting. The latest status is that the man has been arrested and is in police custody as the investigation continues.
