OAKES, N.D. (NewsDakota.com)- An Oakes man has pleaded not guilty to a felony count of luring a minor by computer or electronic device.

33 year old Ryan Lee Marthaller entered his plea Friday before a scheduled preliminary hearing Tuesday, which has since been waived.

A criminal complaint alleges Marthaller sent messages to a 13 year old girl in late June asking for nude photos, then sent sexually explicit messages while again asking for nude photos.

A dispositional conference is scheduled for September 11.
