A Camden County man has been arrested for allegedly attempting to meet with an underage boy for a sexual encounter after chatting online.

Undercover Operation Leads to Arrest

According to the Camden County Prosecutor's Office, on October 27th, Lasman used an app to chat with someone whom he thought was a 14-year-old boy. In reality, that "boy" was actually an undercover detective from the prosecutor's office.
