Clearwater man arrested for fondling 13 year old girl in motel pool
CLEARWATER – A 45-year-old Clearwater man was arrested Tuesday night on charges he groped a 13-year-old girl in a pool at a motel in Clearwater.
Patrick Donald Corbett was charged with one count of lewd and lascivious battery.
Clearwater police did not release the name of the motel.
At about 10:20 p.m. Tuesday night, Corbett was in the pool and began playing with a group of children he did not know, said Elizabeth Watts, Clearwater’s public safety spokeswoman. In the group was a 13-year-old girl.
Corbett approached the girl and fondled her in the water, Watts said.
The girl told him to stop, but he continued to grope and fondle the girl under water until she was able to pull away and run to her mother, police said.
