A 59-year-old Washington Township man was accused Thursday of sexually soliciting a minor in Maryland, state police said.
Donald Henry Loughner of Washington Township, was detained by Kiski Valley state police on a warrant issued Thursday by Washington Township District Judge Jason Buczak. The warrant was based on information from police in Montgomery County, Md., according to the affidavit filed by state police.

Loughner was fingerprinted and processed at the Kiski Valley police station. State police said they contacted Montgomery County authorities and confirmed Loughner’s extradition.
A spokesman for the Montgomery County police department could not be reached for comment Thursday.
