Streetsboro police arrested a Pennsylvania man found inside a hotel Monday with a pregnant 14-year-old girl.
Clyde Tonkin, 29, was being held in the Portage County Jail on a charge of obstructing official business. The teen was taken into custody and was to be driven back to her mother’s home in Jenkins Township, Pa.
The teen, who police said is eight months pregnant, was reported missing Saturday from Pennsylvania. Staff members at Robinson Memorial Hospital contacted Streetsboro police after Tonkin and the teen visited the facility.
Police found the couple at an area hotel and Tonkin and the girl lied about their identity when interviewed by officers, police said. The teen traveled to Ohio willingly and was not abducted, police said.
Tonkin could face additional charges when he is returned to Pennsylvania, police said.
