RCMP arrest man.
A high school teacher in Invermere, B. C., has been charged with child luring, sexual exploitation, and making explicit material available to a child.
Jason Walker was arrested on Feb. 13. He appears in Columbia Valley Provincial Court on March 4.
In January of 2024, Columbia Valley RCMP started the investigation into a teacher engaging in inappropriate communication with a student.
The offences took place over the Internet, specifically social media and investigators believe it may be possible other individuals are aware of these offences, says Cpl. James Grandy, BC RCMP spokesperson.
Police are encouraging anyone who may have further information to contact the Columbia Valley RCMP.
Walker was released and placed on a number of conditions.
