A Hamilton man is facing sexual assault charges in connection with an incident where a woman was allegedly assaulted after going out with a man she met on the dating website Plenty of Fish.

Police say they started investigating the incident on Oct. 17, and that it happened in the area of Scenic Drive and Sanatorium Road in the west end.

The woman said she met the man online, and they had been speaking for about a month.

"They met on one prior occasion prior to the date of this offence," police said in a news release. "The male had disguised his identity by using the name 'Nick Sousa.'"

Police say the woman agreed to meet the man while he was working. At the time, he was working as a security guard and driving a black pickup truck with magnetic labels and the words "security" stamped on the front doors.

"After meeting with the male for a short period of time, the woman decided that she wanted to leave," police said in the statement. "The male grabbed the woman and then sexually assaulted her."

Police say that on Oct. 19, the man was arrested and charged with sexual assault. He was released after a bail hearing.

Police say they believe there may be more victims who were in contact with the man.

Anyone else with information is asked to call police at 905-540-5545 or submit a tip online with Crime Stoppers.
