A Maryland man was arrested for sexual solicitation of a minor after he allegedly asked for sex from an undercover police officer posing as a teenager.

Luis Esteban Borunda, 65, is charged with one count of sexual solicitation of a minor and is being held without bond at the Anne Arundel County Detention Center, Maryland State Police said in a press release.

Borunda was allegedly speaking inappropriately over a smartphone app on August 22 with someone he believed was a 13-year-old girl.
