A Saskatoon man facing sexual assault charges is now facing additional child pornography offences after police searched his electronic devices.

An investigation began involving 23-year-old Norman Joshua Bignall Jr. in November 2022.

After searching his Saskatoon home and devices, the Saskatoon police have charged him with two counts of possession of child pornography and one count making child pornography available.

These charges come just over one week after Bignall was accused of two counts of sexual assault and two counts of indecent acts.
