LEESBURG, Va. (CBS13/AP) - Police say a 35-year-old man may have roamed comic book conventions around the country, including Sacramento, to lure teenage girls into sex.

The Loudoun County Sheriff's Office said Tuesday that Derrick Jones of Catonsville, Maryland, was arrested in Utah on a charge of soliciting sexual contact with a teenage girl in Virginia through social media.

Police say Jones provided transportation for the girl to travel from her Ashburn home to meet him in the Baltimore area.

They want to know about girls Jones contacted in other states. Police say, Jones has been to conventions in Orlando; Albuquerque, New Mexico; Phoenix and Flagstaff, Arizona; Los Angeles and Sacramento, and Salt Lake City.

Jones has been known to use the aliases of Kanovski Zan-Lee Vulgan, Lee, or Kano.

Police did not specify which Sacramento convention he attended.
