(KAIR)--A former firefighter for the City of Saint Joseph pleads guilty to a charge of felony attempted rape.
KQ2-TV reports Jeremy Wigchert entered the plea Thursday, with his sentencing now set for June.
Arrested in February, Wigchert was accused of traveling to a Saint Joseph apartment complex to meet a 15-year-old for sex.
Authorities say he had arranged to meet the teen through a series of sexually explicit emails.
A resident of Kansas City, Wigchert had been with the Saint Joseph Fire Department for about a year at the time of his arrest.
