Youth in Toronto arrested for sexual assault
A 20-year old woman, who was walking by the Don Mills Road and Leith Hill road, near Fairview Mall, on September 26, was groped from behind and assaulted sexually.
After three days, another incident of a 37-year-old woman happened as she was assaulted in the area of Trailside Drive and Lescon Road.
Again, on October 18, a 18-year-old woman was pulled behind and was assaulted sexually in the Leith Hill Road and Shaughnessy Boulevard area.
All the three assaults occurred within the same vicinity of each other.
Police confirmed a suspect was arrested on November 3 and charged with three counts of sexual assault.
Due to his juvenile status, the name and identity of the suspect could not be revealed by the police, under the provision of Youth Criminal Justice Act.
