A Monroeville man is facing charges that he took money from at least four families for a lacrosse training camp that never materialized.

46-year-old Christopher Langlais is charged with four counts of theft by deception and other crimes.

Prosecutors say families from Youngwood, Irwin and Greensburg paid Langlais for a camp that was supposed to have taken place at Seton Hill University last summer.

State police say he had held similar camps at the University in the past.
