Rhode Island man, 22, indicted in online case

A Bedford County grand jury indicted a Rhode Island man Tuesday on two counts of computer solicitation and three counts of having carnal knowledge after being accused of using an online game to lure a 13-year-old Evington girl from her home.

Andrew Fitzgerald Holloway, 22, is scheduled to stand trial Oct. 27.

Investigators said Holloway and the girl met online last year while playing the Xbox 360 game Lost Planet. Holloway traveled to Bedford in February, and the girl ran off with him, according to authorities. They were found less than a mile from the girl's home, and Holloway was arrested.
