Portland police arrest man accused of attempting to meet girl, 14, at local park

A 35-year-old man in Northwest Portland was taken into custody by police after he allegedly tried to meet a 14-year-old girl in a nearby park.

According to the authorities, Samuel Digiovanni used a social media platform to communicate with the girl online for a few weeks before starting to text her. The police claimed that Digiovanni planned to take her to his house after he attempted to meet her at a nearby park.

According to police, tactical squads assisted the Child Abuse Team and the Internet Crimes Against Children section in executing a search and arrest warrant in Northwest Portland.
