A navy lieutenant serving on HMCS Halifax has been charged with sexual assault involving another Armed Forces member.

Lt. Craig Brown, a regular force member with the ship, is facing a possible court martial at a date and location that has yet to be determined, according to a news release.

The Canadian Forces National Investigation Service began an investigation in late October 2018 “when a third party reported that a member had been assaulted while the ship was docked at Reykjavik, Iceland,” the release said.
