(Salt Lake City-AP) -- It took a federal jury three hours to come up with a guilty verdict for Jonathan James Munro.

Munro was arrested in Salt Lake City in September after arranging to meet a 13-year-old girl over the Internet for a sexual encounter. The teenage girl turned out to be an agent with the Utah Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force.

The 21-year old also had a gun on him when he was arrested.

The jury found Munro guilty Tuesday of coercion and enticement for illegal sexual activity and possession of a firearm during a crime of violence.

He'll be sentenced March 23.

He faces up to 35-years in prison.
