FAIRBANKS — A Fairbanks man faces several charges after allegedly making sexually explicit comments to someone from the Alaska Bureau of Investigation posing as a minor online.

Thomaslee Allen, 26, has been indicted on one count of online enticement and two counts of electronic distribution of indecent material to a minor.

The conversations with the agent from the Child Abuse Invesigation Unit took place in mid-December and early January, according to the indictment.

Allen was arrested Friday and is being held at Fairbanks Correctional Center with bail set at $10,000 plus a court-approved third-party custodian.

The Child Abuse Investigation Unit is composed of members of law enforcement from several local agencies who primarily investigate crimes involving children.
