An Idaho-registered sex offender is behind bars after police found a missing Georgia child in his vehicle.
WYFF 4 reported that on Friday, a Franklin County Sheriff’s Office deputy pulled Caelen Dennis, 25, in Franklin County, Georgia.
The deputy was alerted to Dennis’s vehicle by a Flock Safety camera. The vehicle had been listed in connection with a report filed for a missing person.
During the officer’s investigation, he found inside Dennis’s vehicle a juvenile who had been reported missing from the Washington area.
Dennis, a registered sex offender, “is prohibited from having contact with minor children,” according to the Franklin County Sheriff’s Office media release.
Dennis was arrested and taken to the Franklin County Detention Center.
“This incident highlights the importance of parents closely monitoring their children’s online activity and social media interactions to help keep them safe,” the sheriff’s office said.
