Posing as an underage boy helped Ladysmith Police arrest a man for child enticement.

It happened Tuesday at about 10 p.m.

Officers say they got a report that parts of a pornographic magazine were left on a picnic table at O.J. Falge Park. The pages had a phone number written on them.

An officer called it, saying they were 14.

The officer arranged a meeting with the man, who police say talked about sexual acts. That's when police arrested him.

He's in the Rusk County jail right now.

these officers did not just create a crime this guy thought that the person calling him was a child and he talked about sexual acts that is discusting.

I wouldn't feel sorry for someone until you KNOW that they were "set-up". There are more details to this that are not listed. You must not have children because a parent wouldn't feel sorry for someone involved in something like this.

There need to be some more details aout this. The cops seem to have created a "crime" out of nothing - AGAIN! I feel bad for this guy if he thought it was a friend calling and playing a joke on him.
