DUNEDIN - A Louisiana man who met whom he believed was a girl on the Internet was arrested late Wednesday after flying here for a sexual rendezvous, authorities said.

Darryl G. Heck, 39, has been charged with certain use of prohibited computer service and was being held in lieu of $5,000. Cpl. Kurt Romanosky, posing as a 15-year-old girl, communicated with the man for several months before arresting him Wednesday night.
