A Medicine Hat man is facing numerous charges accused of sex offences against both children and animals.
ALERT’s Internet Child Exploitation Unit went to a Medicine Hat home last week and seized computer equipment and electronic devices.
Police allege the suspect was accessing child pornography online. It’s also believed the man committed a sex assault on at least one unidentified child, who is believed to be known to him, and other alleged sexual offences involving several dogs.
