Cogan Station area man arrested for open indecency | News, Sports, Jobs



Joshua Ryan Smith, 20, of 651 St. Michaels Road, Cogan Station, was arrested Thursday morning on charges of repeated molestation and solicitation of a minor to expose himself, state police said in an affidavit. He is charged with one felony and one misdemeanor.

Smith offered the minor marijuana and Percocet if he complied with his wishes, which the minor eventually did on May 9 in Lewis Township, police alleged.

Smith, who was already on probation in York County for indecent assault and sexual battery, was arraigned before District Judge William Solomon on charges of open lewdness and moral depravity of a minor, as well as harassment and disturbing the peace.

He was released on $25,000 bail.
