A 32-year-old man from Toronto has been charged with sexual assault following an incident at a wellness clinic in the city’s Bloor West Village area.
Toronto police say they launched an investigation into a sexual assault last month.
Investigators allege the victim attended a wellness clinic near Bloor Street West and Runnymede Road, and during a massage appointment was sexually assaulted by the suspect.
On May 29, Matthew Moloney, 32, of Toronto, was arrested and charged with sexual assault. The charge has not been tested in court.
He is scheduled to appear in court on Aug. 20.
Police believe there may be more victims and are encouraging anyone with information or anyone who may have been victimized to come forward and contact them.
This investigation is ongoing and anyone with further information is asked to contact Toronto police at 416-808-1100 or Crime Stoppers anonymously.
