On March 8th, 2024, SRPD officers responded to 336 Rivermoor Drive after receiving a report of an unknown male inside the caller's home. Upon arrival, the officers discovered that the suspect, Eric Weidling, age 20, was found inside the home, hiding in the bedroom with a 15-year-old female juvenile. They learned that Weidling, who was staying at the Blue Note Hotel in Marietta, had traveled from Germany to meet the female juvenile, whom he had met online, for sexual intercourse. Weidling was taken into custody and later charged with numerous sex offenses. He was then transported to Lancaster County Prison. U.S. Immigration and Customs officials will then take custody of Weidling. Weidling is considered innocent unless proven guilty in a court of law.
