Within a few hours of releasing surveillance video of a sexual assault suspect, Sarnia police say they identified the male and took him into custody.
The 16-year-old suspect was arrested around 3;30pm Tuesday and charged with sexual assault.
Police say a 15-year-old girl walking in the Wellington St. and Brock St. area was followed for some distance Sunday night and then assaulted from behind by a man, originally described as being in his twenties.
Sarnia police received several tips after a surveillance video was released online. The teen was released on bail.
