A 27-year-old Chisholm man is facing court charged with online child sex offences.

Police will allege the 27-year-old used a carriage service to groom and procure a 14-year-old girl, in addition to requesting the girl produce child exploitation material and send to him via social media applications.

The man was arrested yesterday (July 24) as part of a police operation. It will be alleged the man travelled to a location in Stirling for the purpose of meeting with the 14-year-old girl.
