A 33-year-old Hamilton man, who works out of Stoney Creek and Niagara, is facing a sexual assault charge and police say there may be more victims.

Hamilton Police Service officers arrested and charged a registered massage therapist on Feb. 11, the service said in a news release Tuesday.

Investigators say the incident they charged him for occurred during his work. It was a single incident and took place in Stoney Creek, police told CBC Hamilton by email.

Police said additional victims, or people with information that could help investigators can contact Det. Darryl Oosterhoff of the Sex Crimes Unit.

They describe the massage therapist as six feet two inches, 185 pounds, Middle Eastern and athletic, with long dark hair.

Police said they reported the incident to the College of Massage Therapists of Ontario.

The college shows the man listed as a member in its directory since February 2023. There are two alerts on his file dated Feb. 11 noting the sexual assault charge, and that he signed an undertaking with a peace officer agreeing not to contact or come within 50 metres of a specified client.

The registry lists his business address as being in a residential neighbourhood in Pelham, Ont.
