Man sentenced after attempting to seduce undercover officer with pasta

AUSTINTOWN, OH (WKBN) – An Ashtabula County man who tried to seduce an underage victim with Chicken Alfredo and Sprite will serve seven days in the county jail.

Albert Maruna, now 23, was arrested in an Austintown sex sting back in December.

He thought he was talking to a 15-year-old boy online, but it was actually an undercover Austintown police officer.

Maruna arranged to meet the officer in Austintown. He planned to bring lubricant, Sprite and Chicken Alfredo to the date.

He’ll be on house arrest for 120 days and will have to register as a Tier One sex offender.
