A 40-year-old Chatham man who was wanted in connection with an alleged sexual assault that took place under the Keil Drive Bridge has been arrested.
Chatham-Kent police said the man turned himself in at police headquarters Thursday morning.
According to a previous release from police, a 16-year-old girl was sitting under the bridge, waiting for a friend to arrive, when a man stopped to talk to her and touched her thigh.
Police said the same man also allegedly grabbed the girl's wrist in an attempt to pull her closer to him and then took off when the girl's friend arrived.
The man who was arrested in connection with the case was charged with assault and sexual assault and was later released with a future court date.
