A 28-year-old London man is facing charges following an incident early Sunday.
Police say a 19-year-old woman was walking westbound on Oxford Street from Richmond Street at 3:30 a.m. when she was approached by a vehicle.
According to police, the driver tried to convince her to get into his car, but she repeatedly told him she did not need a ride. After that, police say the driver stopped, got out of the vehicle, grabbed her by the arm and walked her to the front seat of the car.
Police say the man sexually assaulted the victim while driving, and dropped her off a short time later at the intersection of Wharncliffe Road and Oxford Sreet.
Police have charged Noorullah Husaini, of London, with sexual assault and kidnapping. The accused is expected to appear in London court on May 8 in relation to the charges.
