State police at Fogelsville

State police at the Fogelsville barracks reported the following incidents:

• An 18-year-old Slatington woman was cited for possession of alcohol after police responded to an apparent party at 11:32 p.m. May 24 on Greens Drive, Lower Towamensing Township.

Police said they responded to a report of a large gathering outside a residence at that location, after which multiple people began to disperse on foot. Contact was made with the Slatington woman, who was found to be in possession of alcohol.

• An 18-year-old Orefield man is the victim of an incident police responded to at 10:40 p.m. May 20 on Tycolia Court, Lowhill Township.

Police said the man, believing an unknown suspect was a woman his age, exchanged nude photos with the actor via Snapchat and Instagram. After the exchange, the actor demanded the man pay through bitcoin or the photos would be shared.

The man said he sent two transactions totaling $150, but was able to get his money back since the transactions did not process properly. When the man realized the incident was a scam, he cut off contact.
