SOUTH STORMONT – A South Stormont man is facing a number of sex-related charges involving interactions with a young girl.

Police arrested a 45-year-old man on Wednesday (April 14) and charged him with two counts of sexual assault, one count of invitation to sexual touching and one count of sexual interference.

SD&G O.P.P. say a man had “sexually touched a young female” he knew on “multiple occasions.”

Police withheld his name to protect the victim, who is under the age of 16.

The accused appeared in Cornwall bail court yesterday.
