A 21-year-old Indiana man has been arrested for soliciting sex from a 12-year-old girl and sending graphic photos via text message.

In an unusual twist, police discovered the man and his sexting victim are both Amish.

The Smoking Gun reports Willard Yoder sent more than 600 texts to a 12-year-old girl, including an invitation to have sex with her in his buggy.

Police say the child received a random text from the man and showed it to her mother, who then proceeded to pretend to be her daughter and continued communicating with Yoder. He sent nude photos and then arranged for them to meet at the Takehome Restaurant in Milroy, Indiana.

The parents contacted the police, and undercover officers arrested him outside the eatery. According to The Smoking Gun, investigators said Yoder was cooperative and "walked his horse and buggy around the building and tied it to a post outside." Yoder admitted during questioning that "he thought he was going to have sex with the girl," whom he thought was 13.

Yoder faces four felony counts for allegedly soliciting sex from a minor and is currently free on a $20,000 bond.

According to Fox News, an estimated "1 to 2 percent" of Amish youth use Facebook, but won't publicly admit to it for fear of getting in trouble. They mostly just friend other Amish kids using cell phones.

"Amish America" blogger Erik Wesner told Fox News that many Amish do use email and some technology. Typically, he said, it's justified as a business concession.

Contrary to popular belief, cell phones and other modern conventions are not considered antithetical, MSNBC reports, but many Amish communities still don't allow them inside homes. Phones are kept in shared community buildings and primarily used for emergencies or business.
