LETHBRIDGE, AB – The Lethbridge Police Service (LPS) has charged a 57-year-old Coaldale man with multiple counts of sex-related offences following alleged incidents at a local grocery store.
On January 20, 2024, LPS responded to a sexual assault complaint at the Superstore on Mayor Magrath Drive South. The investigation determined that a 46-year-old woman and her two daughters, who are both under the age of 16, were reportedly followed and sexually assaulted by a man in the store.
Police say the man followed each of the victims around the store and touched them inappropriately. After reviewing the surveillance footage, LPS found that the suspect had allegedly targeted and touched another female, who is yet to be identified.
After images were released by police in an effort to identify him, the man turned himself in to police on January 26 and was arrested.
