Sexual assault suspect surrenders to Windsor police

Windsor police say a 50-year-old man has turned himself in following an alleged sexual assault on a 12-year-old boy.

On Friday evening, officers received a report of a sexual assault that occurred earlier that day.

The victim told police that he was fishing at a park in the Ducharme Street and Manzanillo Crescent area when he was approached by an unknown man who allegedly touched him inappropriately and made suggestive comments. The suspect then left the area on a bicycle. The boy was able to get away and tell his family.

Police say 50-year-old Amar Singh surrendered at Windsor police headquarters on Monday.

He is charged with sexual assault and sexual interference with a person under 16 years of age.

The charges have not been proven in court.
