A London man is facing child pornography charges after local police were provided with information from overseas.

London police say they received information from the Swiss Cybercrime Coordination Unit in Dec. 2014, that someone in the city was making child pornography available online.

On Thursday, police executed a warrant at a Ridout St. S. address.

As a result, 54-year-old Harold Gilbert was arrested and is now facing five charges including:

  • two counts of possession of child pornography
  • two counts of make available child pornography
  • access child pornography
