Cyber Sting Nets Suspected Predators


Last Update: 8/27/2008 2:25 pm
(WXYZ) Wayne County Sheriff's deputies busted suspected internet predators in two separate sting operations.

Investigators say Kevin Hardges of Ypsilanti used the internet to arrange to have sex with what he thought was a teenage boy. When he arrived at the meeting location he was greeted by Wayne County Sheriff's deputies.
 
Fifteen minutes after Hardges was busted, deputies also arrested Donald Carns of Allen Park. He showed up to have sex with what he thought was a 14-year-old girl.

Both suspected predators had no idea they had been chatting online with undercover investigators.
