So if you've ever been flashed in the Stony Run/ Roland Avenue area, go down with your camera and make an ID.
Reports the Sun:
A man convicted of sexually molesting a 9-year-old child in 1998 was arrested yesterday evening and charged with trespassing at Roland Park Elementary-Middle School, where he allegedly offered money to pupils, city police said. Kenneth Earl Barnes, 43, of the 200 block of W. Cold Spring Lane, was arrested about 7:25 p.m. by members of the Warrant Apprehension Task Force as he sat in a parked car in the 4400 block of N. Charles St., said Officer Troy Harris, a police department spokesman. Barnes was charged with failing to register as a sex offender, as well as trespassing at school property in the 5200 block of Roland Ave. He was alleged to have offered money to children there about 11 a.m., police said. Harris said the children refused the money and reported the incident to school officials. There was no physical contact with the children, Harris said. Barnes had registered as a convicted sex offender upon his release from prison but had not registered again after moving to his current address, Harris said.

Just FYI: the sex predator who used to live on Cold Spring Lane but now lives in 21207 was spotted this week in the neighborhood again (100 block of Hawthorne Rd.). He was outside of his car and was apparently staring at a 2-year-old. One of the dads on the block walked toward him, which made him get in his car and drive away. I may not have all of the facts 100% straight, but I was told that the kids on that block are now no longer allowed to play outside without an adult supervising. If anyone knows the make/model/color of his car, let us know. Here is his latest mug shot and address:
