Police: Lindenhurst Man Asked 14-Year-Olds to Film Porn Video With Him

A Lindenhurst man approached two teenage girls in Massapequa Park on Monday afternoon, showed them a box of condoms and asked if they wanted to be in an adult film with him, Nassau Police said.

Andrew A. Quattrone, 32, was arrested shortly after the incident outside a King Kullen supermarket, police said.

According to police, Quattrone approached the two 14-year-old girls in the parking lot of the supermarket at 4900 Merrick Road shortly after 3 p.m. Monday.

In addition to showing the girls a box of condoms and asking if they wanted to be in an adult video with him, Quattrone also showed the teens pornographic pictures on his phone, police said.

When the girls began to walk away, Quattrone asked them to reconsider making a video, police said.

The girls ran to a nearby store and called police.

An investigation identified Quattrone, of 501 51st Street in Lindenhurst, as the suspect, police said. He was arrested at 5:10 p.m. in the same King Kullen parking lot where the alleged incident occurred, police said.

Quattrone is charged with two counts each of attempted use of a child in a sexual performance, endangering the welfare of a child and third degree criminal solicitation. He will be arraigned on Tuesday at First District Court in Hempstead.

Detectives are asking anyone with information regarding this incident or similar incidents to contact the Seventh Squad at 516-573-6753. All callers will remain anonymous.
