Police say the boy was attending a birthday party at Henderson Lake on June 1 when he was approached by an older, unknown man. It’s alleged that the boy was offered candy and led to a nearby washroom, where he was sexually assaulted.

A witness saw a man with the boy near the water. He quickly walked away northbound when the witness called out to the boy to come back to the party.

The suspect is described as an older male with short grey hair and a medium build, wearing khaki shorts and a red plaid shirt at the time.

I started my radio career in 2015, shortly after graduating from Lethbridge College. I have a very strong passion for local news. Proudly born in 1994, I grew up most of my life in Sylvan Lake, AB and I've lived in the Lethbridge since 2012. I'm a below average golfer on a good day, I take as many hiking trips to Waterton as possible in the summer and I love my two cats, Outlaw and Jynx, and my dog, Maverick, more than most people I know. I look forward to providing accurate, timely news coverage in southern Alberta for plenty of years to come!
