Police found a 12-year-old Vancouver girl with two men in an apartment this past weekend as a result of Internet luring.

"It looks as if it is a case of Internet luring. The girl had been in contact with a 24-year-old man over the Internet for several months," said Victoria police Const. Peter Lane.

"She was reported missing from her mom here," Vancouver police spokesman Const. Tim Fanning said in an interview Sunday.

Police located the girl and a 47-year-old man was arrested for obstructing a police officer.  A 24-year-old man was arrested for child luring, sexual interference and possessing child pornography.

Names and condition of the girl have not yet been released.
