A Greenleaf man was arrested on suspicion of attempted sexual battery of a minor.

Trevor Douty was booked into the Canyon County jail following an investigation from the Idaho Attorney General’s Internet Crimes Against Children Unit. He is being held in the jail on a $100,000 bond.

The Idaho Press reports, the investigation was prompted by a tip submitted from the Wilder Police Department, which also helped in the investigation.

Douty is set to appear in court Oct. 5.

Anyone with information about the exploitation of children is encouraged to contact local police.
