BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — Bond has been set for a Bismarck man accused of luring a minor by computer.

The Bismarck Tribune reports 32-year-old Clifford Moody was charged Thursday with felony luring a minor by computer. He also faces misdemeanor charges of criminal attempt and possession of prohibited materials.

Police say Moody shared several sexually explicit photos of himself to what he believed was a 14-year-old girl.
