A Calgary man is facing charges in a sexual extortion case involving a 16-year-old girl.
It's alleged the man began communicating with the teen through Instagram between May and June.
"It is believed the man lured the girl into sharing nude photos of herself in exchange for money," explained a Tuesday news release from police.
"The girl discovered the nude photos had been posted online without her knowledge or consent. When she confronted the man to remove the photos, he refused, unless she provided more nude photos or engaged in sexual activities with him."
Police launched an investigation after the victim came forward.
Officers searched a home in the 2400 block of Pinewood Drive S.E. on Aug. 8, seizing electronic devices.
Curtis Tyson Chalk, 29, is charged with one count each of extortion, child luring for the purpose of producing child pornography, making child pornography available, accessing child pornography and possessing child pornography.
