A 65-year-old Lundar man has been arrested and charged in relation to a series of sexual assaults against children in Winnipeg in the 1980s.
Police began an investigation after one of the victims, now and adult, came forward in December 2021. Members of the Winnipeg Police Service Child Abuse Unit found two additional people who had also been sexually assaulted. All three survivors were children at the time of the assaults.
