A child luring investigation by the Ontario Provincial Police has resulted in charges against an Angus man.
Police allege the 39-year-old suspect had travelled to meet a young person for a sexual purpose.
The age of the young person was not revealed by investigators.
The suspect has been charged with:
- Luring a child to facilitate the offence of sexual assault
- Luring a child to facilitate the offence of sexual interference
"It is imperative that parents have open and honest conversations with their children regarding who they are chatting with online as well as healthy relationships," said Acting Detective Sergeant Brian Higgs of the OPP Child Sexual Exploitation Unit. "Take the time to talk and develop trust with your child - they are up against manipulative offenders online with bad intentions. Empower your kids now!"
