Former Disney Channel actor Stoney Westmoreland has been charged with six felony counts after authorities said he tried to have sex with a 13-year-old boy.

Prosecutors said the 48-year-old Westmoreland was on the dating app Grindr when he found a profile operated by a police detective in Salt Lake City, near the location of the show "Andi Mack." A message left with Westmoreland's agent, Mitchell Stubbs, was not immediately returned.

Charging documents said Westmoreland was arrested December 13 after he took a car to meet the boy so they could go back to his hotel room.
