The state attorney general’s office this week arrested three men after they allegedly agreed to meet an undercover officer posing as a 14-year-old boy for sex.

One of the men, Timothy M. Myers, 32, of Latrobe, told police after his arrest that he was a youth pastor. While his claim of being a pastor didn’t appear to be accurate, investigators said, the AG’s office was continuing to investigate Myers’ background and exposure to other potential victims.

It does appear Myers volunteered at his church and was preparing to travel to Peru in late July to conduct a Bible School for children. He used an online fundraising page to pay for his trip.

Myers also is shown on a Facebook page dressed in a sumo wrestler costume participating in a Westmoreland County youth event in 2009.
