A 48-year-old man is facing multiple charges, including luring, sexual assault and production and possession of child pornography.

Quebec provincial police (SQ) in Beauharnois-Salaberry arrested Yan Lecompte on Wednesday in relation to sexual offences against minors.

He appeared in court on the same day for alleged offences committed between 2010 and 2023.

"The investigation suggests that the suspect may have had other victims," the SQ said in a news release.

The case is under the SQ's serial crime investigations department.
