WOONSOCKET, R.I. – A Connecticut man has been accused of trying to lure an underage girl in Woonsocket to leave middle school to have sex with him.

The "girl" however, turned out to be an undercover detective.

Police say 30-year-old Soukthiranorra Insixiengmay previously from Woonsocket chatted with a detective for two weeks on Facebook, thinking she was 14.

Insixiengmay sent three explicit photos of himself, arranged a meeting for sex, but when he arrived was arrested.

Authorities say Insixiengmay was arraigned on three charges, including indecent solicitation of a child.

He was released on bail.
