SAVANNAH, Tenn — A West Tennessee woman is behind bars after federal investigators said she committed several internet sex crimes against an Arkansas child.

Wednesday, the U.S. Marshals Service said they captured 22-year-old Natalie Graves of Tennessee, who was wanted for internet stalking of a child, possession or use of child sexual abuse material, and sexual grooming of a child.

On September 18, a warrant was issued by the District Court of Craighead County in Jonesboro, Arkansas, charging Graves with the crimes. It was later found she lived in West Tennessee, and federal assistance was brought in. 

Wednesday morning, the U.S. Marshals Two Rivers Task Force went to a residence in the 100 block of Ashwood Road in Savannah and took Graves into custody. The Marshals service said she will be held in the Hardin County Jail as she awaits extradition to Arkansas.
