The now-69-year-old man was arrested by Halton Police and now faces sodomy and indecency charges.

When the man owned a pizza shop in Milton from 1972 to 1978, police say he offered jobs at the shop and preyed on young boys between the ages of 10 and 16 years old. Police allege he paid the victims for sexual acts.
