On October 4, 2009 at around 3:50pm, Selkirk RCMP were dispatched to a report of a sexual assault that had occurred on a regularly scheduled bus departing Selkirk for Winnipeg.
RCMP boarded the bus in the City of Selkirk and arrested a 59-year-old Winnipeg man, who allegedly sexually assaulted a female passenger. The man was found to be intoxicated and was held in custody until sober.
The man was released from custody on a promise to appear and will be facing charges of sexual assault and breach of a recognizance and is scheduled to appear in Selkirk Provincial Court on November 6, 2009.
The Selkirk RCMP continue to investigate.
