FOUNTAIN — A man has been arrested for internet luring of a child, and the Fountain Police Department says there may be more victims.
The department says 35-year-old Christopher Shaffer was arrested around noon Thursday following an investigation. According to police, Shaffer planned to meet a 13-year-old girl at a retail store in Fountain.
After the arrest, police learned People's Fellowship Ministries hold in-home church services that children may attend. Shaffer's home in Colorado Springs was one of those places.
Shaffer is not a pastor with the church, according to police.
Fountain police are asking for the public's help in locating any witnesses and/or victims.
