Salazar said Arce communicated with another undercover agent last year and made sexually explicit comments.
The sheriff’s office obtained an arrest warrant and took Arce into custody at a restaurant in the 7500 block of Northwest Loop 410. He was arrested without incident, Salazar said.
Salazar reminds parents and guardians to monitor what children are doing and who they are communicating with, both online and in person.
