Creep Catchers sting leads to sex charge against P.E.I. man: police
CHARLOTTETOWN — A sting by the controversial Creep Catchers vigilante group has led to the arrest of a 31-year-old Charlottetown man.
The man set up a meeting with what he thought was a 14-year-old girl on a dating site called Skout, Det. Sgt. Walter Vessey of the Charlottetown police major crime unit said Wednesday.
It wasn’t a girl, though — it was a member of the Cape Breton Creep Catchers.
“The suspect in this case initiated contact … started conversation and eventually it led to making arrangements to get together for a sexual purpose,” said Vessey.
