Additional charges laid against a North Bay man

A 73 year old North Bay male is facing additional charges.

In August, city police laid several sexual assault charges against the man who remains in custody.

The new charges include three counts of indecent assault on a female, three counts of gross indecency and one count of intercourse with a female under 14. Police say the new counts involve sexual acts against three female victims between 1961 and 1973.

Police say the victims range in age from 4 to 17.

Police say at the time, the victims knew the person who perpetrated these crimes as he was in a position of trust but not in a public position.

The name of the accused is being withheld to protect the identities of the victims.

Police ask that if there are any more victims to contact them through Constables Scott Buchannan or Dave Wilson.
