Jimmy Lee Bowling, 68, was arrested and charged with attempted child molestation, pandering, sexual exploitation of a child and obscene internet contact with a minor, news outlets reported.
According to Cherokee County Sheriff鈥檚 Capt. Jay Baker, the Ellijay, Georgia, man arrived in the county expecting to meet a 14-year-old girl he was 鈥渟peaking鈥� to on the internet. Instead, the Sheriff鈥檚 Office Internet Crimes Against Children unit was there.
Baker said Bowling was arrested without incident.
It鈥檚 unclear whether Bowling has an attorney who can comment on his behalf.
