A Texarkana man has been arrested for allegedly stalking a teenager on the internet.

Preston Jones, 24, is accused of using social media to meet up with a 14-year-old girl.  

The conversations which started last August were mainly sexually and drug oriented.

When Jones went to meet the girl at an apartment complex he was instead greeted by Arkansas police.

If convicted, Jones faces up to 20 years in jail and a fine of up to $15,000.  His bond has been set at $40,000.

Jones has another court appearance later this month.
