Leechburg police Chief Mike Diebold made bond and was released from the Westmoreland County Prison on Thursday, sources tell Channel 11.
Diebold, 40, had been in jail since Friday on $500,000 straight bond on charges of unlawful contact with a minor and criminal attempt to commit involuntary deviate sexual intercourse.
State agents arrested him in the parking lot of a Sheetz in Lower Burrell where he allegedly was expecting to meet a 14-year-old girl he met online for sex. The girl was really an undercover state agent.
