Honolulu police are holding a 32-year-old Wai'anae man tonight on suspicion of first-degree electronic enticement of a minor, a felony.

Undercover officers with the Honolulu Police Department arrested the man in a sting operation at around 6 p.m. yesterday "after he showed up at an agreed-upon meeting place to have sex with a 14-year-old female he met on the Internet," an HPD criminal investigation division report said.

But the "teen" turned out to be an undercover police officer.

The man was arrested at Ala Moana Center and taken to the cellblock at the main police station on Beretania.

The suspect is expected to be charged with the crime by tomorrow, police said.
