Police have arrested an 18-year-old man they allege was grooming a 14-year-old girl via text messages.
While investigating an alleged arson attack on a home in Brierfield on the NSW north coast last year, police discovered a suspect had also been sending lewd text messages of a sexual nature to a minor.
He appeared before Coffs Harbour Local Court on Thursday charged with aggravated break and enter, arson and procuring a child for unlawful sexual activity.
He was refused bail and will appear before the court again on 29 May.
