Bond set at $50,000:

Missouri--A Springfield truck driver was arrested by police last week after he drove to Branson to meet what he believed to be underage minor for sex.

Leroy Edward Daughtery, 41, has been charged with attempted enticement of a child after having several "Internet chats" with a young "girl" and then subsequently trying to meet with the female whom he believed was younger than 14.

However, Daughtery had actually been chatting with an undercover deputy who had been posing online as the teen.

He was arrested on April 10th.

Daugherty had several screen names including, "Vampire Freak" and "Dark Trucker", according to the Springfield News-Leader.
