WOIO Staffer Busted for Child Enticement
/
A Cleveland mother says that man tried to abduct her 8-year-old daughter as she was playing outside.
The girl's13 year old brother yelled at the man and he ran away. A woman followed the guy and when the police arrived they arrested the him in his mother's house.
The guy busted by police is Shannon Rowe and he works at WOIO in Master Control.
Rowe was booked for criminal child enticement and menacing and released after posting bond.
WOIO did a very brief story on their website about the incident and in the last line mentioned that the guy works at the station.
Across the street at WEWS, they did a story on the attempted abduction, but they never mentioned the fact that Rowe works for the competition.
