Lethbridge Police have charged a 22-year-old male in connection with an incident where a 12-year-old girl was sexually assaulted in a city hotel room.
On April 24, 2025, police responded to a request to assist in the recovery of property from a southside hotel room. Upon arrival, police located a male with six children, one boy and five girls ranging in age from 12 to 14, inside the room. The male, later determined to be 21-years-old at the time, initially lied to police about his age, claiming to be a teenager. An investigation was subsequently initiated.
The investigation determined the male had met the teens on social media. After driving them around to various locations, he took the group to a hotel room where they were provided with alcohol and a 12-year-old girl reported she was sexually assaulted.
During the course of the investigation, after repeated unsuccessful attempts to contact the male, police learned he had left the country. He was subsequently charged and a Canada-wide warrant for his arrest was issued.
On January 19, 2026, LPS was alerted the male had returned to Canada and had been arrested at the Vancouver International Airport.
