Colorado Springs police arrest man accused of soliciting child for sex from online marketplace buyer

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KRDO) -- Colorado Springs police say a 24-year-old man was selling an appliance to a woman through an online marketplace when he allegedly asked her if she knew of any children that he could pay for sex.

CSPD said it happened in April when Anthony Lagorio, 24, asked the buyer "if she knew of any pre-teen children he could pay money to in exchange for sexual contact," according to a police report released Thursday.

Detectives set up an online sex sting and contacted him pretending to be a 16-year-old girl. He agreed to meet up and pay for sexual contact in August, and detectives met with him.

Lagorio has also been arrested twice in the past eight months for indecent exposure, according to CSPD. At least one of those incidents included him exposing himself to a juvenile.

Police believe there may be other victims. If you have information, call Colorado Springs police at 719-444-7766.
