A 30-year-old man suspected of sending nude photos of himself to a 12-year-old girl in Texas was arrested at his home in San Bernardino earlier this week, authorities announced Friday.
Paul Madison allegedly met the girl while playing “Game of War” online and then began communicating with her outside the game app, according to a news release from the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department.
The girl’s mother discovered text messages and nude photos that were sent to her daughter and contacted local police, who then alerted authorities in San Bernardino County.
On Tuesday, detectives obtained a warrant and arrested Madison at his home in the 100 block of North Sierra Way, the Sheriff’s Department stated.
Madison was booked on suspicion of providing harmful matter to a minor and was being held on $25,000 bail.
Detectives believe there may be other victims and asked anyone who may have been victimized by Madison to call detectives at 909-336-0600.
