Another Hazard Man Arrested for Trying to Meet Underage Girl

There’s been another arrest of a local man allegedly trying to meet up with what he
thought was an underage girl but was actually an investigator.

The Perry County Sheriff’s Office says they arrested Ross Hurt on September 20 after they got a call from an associate with KY Predo Pursuit which had a decoy posing as a 14-year-old girl who had allegedly exchanged sexual texts with Hurt as well as explicit images and videos after he had allegedly asked for them.

When he allegedly asked to meet her, he was arrested on more than 50 counts.

Earlier this month a Hazard man was arrested under nearly identical circumstances, also through KY Predo Pursuit.
