Cody Wilson, the 3D-printed gun rights activist, has a warrant out for his arrest, according to an affidavit partially published Wednesday by an Austin-based reporter, Tony Plohetski.

According to the document, which was also described by KVUE, Wilson is accused of meeting a 17-year-old girl through a website known as SugarDaddyMeet.com and paying her $500 for sex last month in Austin, where Wilson lives.

Wilson allegedly used the username “Sanjuro,” a seeming reference to a 1962 Japanese film directed by Akira Kurosawa. At some point, according to the affidavit, which was described by the Austin American Statesman, Sanjuro identified himself as Cody Wilson and further indicated that he was a “big deal.” Wilson also allegedly exchanged nude photos with the girl.
