CINCINNATI --
A local man who went on the Internet and offered live video of himself having sex with a 3-year-old girl is behind bars, police say.
Paul A. Kraft has been charged with two counts of rape and one count of pandering sexually oriented material involving a minor, News 5's Emily Longnecker reported.
Kraft, 31, of the 4000 block of Winneste Avenue, is being held in the Hamilton County Justice Center.
His bond was set Wednesday at $750,000.
Kraft faces up to 28 years in prison if convicted.
A tip from the Secret Service to the Regional Electronic and Computer Investigations Unit resulted in Kraft's arrest, according to the Hamilton County Sheriff's Office.
Undercover Secret Service agents said they made contact with Kraft in a sex site chat room.
They said Kraft told them they could watch him have sex with a 3-year-old live on the Internet.
Secret Service and local authorities arrested Kraft at his home Tuesday night and executed a search warrant on his home and computer.
Investigators are continuing to examine the computer, Longnecker reported.
RECI is a task force of sheriff's deputies and Cincinnati police officers.
