A Northern Illinois man remains in custody in southwestern Indiana after allegedly molesting a juvenile female from Lawrence County (Illinois).
24-year-old Leonte Hall of Chicago was arrested by the Knox County Indiana Sheriff's Department after they received a tip about an active child molestation taking place in a parked car on North 5th Street in Vincennes.
He was discovered inside the vehicle with a 13-year-old girl from Lawrenceville. The girls told authorities that she had had sexual relations with Hall even though he knew she was underage. Hall told police he had met the girl on Snapchat and had driven to meet her even though he was aware of her age.
Hall has been preliminarily charged with Sexual Misconduct with a Minor and was being held pending bond in the Knox County (Indiana) Jail.
