A Murray Bridge man has been charged with a child sex offence.
Detectives from SA Police’s public protection branch arrested the 32-year-old on Tuesday morning.
The arrest was based on a tip-off from a Victoria Police sexual offences and child abuse investigation unit based at Frankston, in Melbourne’s southeast.
He was charged with procuring a child to commit an indecent act.
However, he was released on bail ahead of a court appearance in Murray Bridge on March 1.
SA Police described the case as an excellent example of interstate jurisdictions working together to protect the vulnerable.
