Man arrested in online sting after tacos offered to young girl for sex
FORT WORTH -- For two tacos and a soft drink, Jose Garcia believed he was going to have sex with a 13-year-old girl, police said.
Garcia was one of nine North Texas men arrested last week during spring break in an online sting conducted by Fort Worth police and investigators with the Texas Department of Public Safety’s Hurst office. The youngest is 20 and the oldest 49, according to jail records.
Investigators placed advertisements on various social media sites seeking anyone interested in sexual encounters with female or male minors.
On nine different occasions, police say, the person who answered an ad made plans to meet with a minor at a Fort Worth residence. The “minor” was an undercover officer trained on how to chat with child predators, police said.
