MURRAY — A firefighter has been arrested and accused of trying to arrange a meeting with a young girl to sexually assault her.

Tyson David Green, 47, of Layton, was booked into the Salt Lake County Jail on Wednesday for investigation of two counts of aggravated sexual exploitation of a minor.

Between July 31 and Wednesday, an undercover agent with the FBI Child Exploitation and Human Trafficking Task Force posed online as a father offering his 9-year-old daughter. He was contacted by Green and the two "had a conversation regarding sexual interest in minors," according to a police booking affidavit.

"When the (undercover agent) asked if he was 'active' with his kids, meaning actively abusing them, he replied with, 'No, I wish,'" the affidavit alleges.
