WRPS and Family and Children Services of Waterloo Region conducted a joint investigation and determined that an alleged assault took place during the 2021-2022 school year. A 58-year-old was charged.

Then on Thursday, investigators revealed there were further incidents involving the first youth victim and also identified a second victim.

As a result, police laid additional charges against the individual: two counts each of sexual assault and sexual interference, and one count of invitation to sexual touching.
