State Rep. Bob Allen on Thursday entered a not guilty plea on charges that he solicited an undercover officer for sex in a Brevard County park bathroom. Allen claims he went to the bathroom on July 11 to avoid a lightning storm. He said he knocked on the door of the officer's stall to see if he was OK. Allen said he agreed to a sex act because he feared he was going to be robbed. Allen also said that he was planning on going to a Kennedy Space Center guard post to get help. Local 6 News partner Florida Today reported that the nearest guard post to the bathroom is 8 miles away. Watch Local 6 News for more on this story.
