The DeSoto Parish Sheriff's Office is asking for the public's help in locating a Shreveport man wanted for molestation of a juvenile.

Investigators say 29-year-old Jay D. Martin, of 7800 Youree Drive in Shreveport, inappropriately touched a 13-year-old girl, told her he loved her and tried to talk her into running away with him.

Her parents leaned of the plan and called police.
