The heroine of the computer game Tomb Raider is often described as the "implausibly proportioned Lara Croft". Now, one of its producers has been charged with seeking sex with a nine-year-old girl, say British police.
Kenneth Lockley was arrested over last weekend in London, at the Regent's Palace Hotel in Picadilly, for allegedly trying to persuade an undercover police officer for sex, police said to provide him with such a girl. British authorities will not release more details on the incident for now, says APBNews.com
Lockley is reported in British custody. Scotland Yard has refused official to disclose his employer, saying only that he is a producer - but Kenneth Lockley is named in the credits on the current version of Tomb Raider, produced by Core Design Ltd., a British company.
Neither Core Design nor its American parent, Eidos Interactive, has commented yet, nor have attorneys for Lockley.
