FORT FRANCES — One person has been charged with sexual assault after an investigation into a complaint received earlier this month.

Provincial police on Thursday said the Rainy River District detachment received a call for service to respond to reports of a sexual assault on Aug. 16.

An investigation led to one count of sexual assault against a 69-year-old John Beaton from Fort Frances.

The accused has been released from custody but is scheduled to appear in court at a later date.

The charge has yet to be tested in court.
