FRANKLIN COUNTY, N.Y. -- Federal prosecutors have charged a North Country man with the enticement of a minor from Western New York.

Michael Bombard, 23, of Saranac Lake was arrested after investigators say he engaged in sexually explicit messages with a 14-year-old girl over the phone and computer for three months last year.

The complaint also alleges the girl sent sexually explicit images to Bombard. A conviction on the charge carries a mandatory minimum sentence of ten years in prison.
