Cops: Naperville man solicited sex with child

A Naperville man is accused of soliciting sex from an undercover police officer who posed online as a 15-year-old girl, authorities said Tuesday.

Enzo DiSapia, 39, of the 1100 block of Greensfield Drive, was arrested Monday after traveling to St. Charles for what he believed would be a sexual encounter with the teen, police said. He was charged with one count of indecent solicitation of a child, a Class 4 felony, according to court records.

St. Charles police spokesman Paul McCurtain said DiSapia began chatting with the officer, who works in computer crimes, online in May and eventually requested a sexual encounter.

Shortly before 2 p.m. Monday, he arrived at the agreed location - an apartment complex on St. Charles' east side - where he was taken into custody without incident, McCurtain said.

DiSapia was being held in the Kane County jail Tuesday afternoon on $70,000 bail. He will need to pay $7,000 to be released.

He is scheduled to appear in court July 27.
