A female basketball coach in Guelph is facing charges in connection with an historical sexual assault case.
The investigation by Guelph Police Service’s Special Victims Unit began in January.
Investigators say the victim was between the age of 12 and 15 at the time. They say the alleged incidents involved a basketball coach with the Tri-City Thunder between 2018 and 2022.
On Friday, they announced that 30-year-old Cheryton Bennett was arrested and is facing a number of charges including sexual assault.
Bennett is out with a court date in March. She is under a number of conditions which include not attending a public park or swimming area where there are people present who are under the age of 16.
