Police say that a London, Ont. man is facing sexual assault charges in relation to an investigation conducted by the London Police Service (LPS) Sexual Assault and Child Abuse Section.
On May 11, police began an investigation after receiving allegations related to a man and his activities at his construction business. The alleged incidents took place between January and May of this year.
