White County Man Arrested for Child Enticement

A 26-year-old Cleveland man is behind bars tonight after authorities say he carried on an internet relationship with a girl he thought was 14.

Eugene Gerald Grizzle was picked up without incident by Hall County Deputies on Wednesday. He’s charged with one count of “electronic enticement of a minor and attempted aggravated child molestation.”

A Sheriff’s spokesperson said via a press release that the charges stem from an ongoing investigation in which, “Grizzle communicated with an undercover investigator whom he believed to be a 14 year old female over a two week period.”

Grizzle remains in custody without bond at the Hall County Jail.
