File # 24-25954

North Vancouver RCMP have arrested a man in relation to an ongoing sexual assault investigation and are requesting anyone with information to contact police.

On December 22, 2024, North Vancouver RCMP received a report that a youth had allegedly been sexually assaulted by a volleyball coach. On April 3, 2025, as a result of police investigation, a 50-year-old north shore man was arrested by police.

The man has since been released with a number of conditions for court at a later date, pending further investigation and charge approval.

"This is an ongoing, complex investigation involving allegations of sexual assaults that occurred over a period of several years, said Corporal Mansoor Sahak, Media Relations Officer for the North Vancouver RCMP. The top priority for investigators is to speak with anyone with information that has not yet come forward, to gather all available evidence and to support those impacted throughout this process.

North Vancouver RCMP's Crisis Intervention Unit provides support to victims and witnesses of crime and other significant traumatic events, and can be reached 24 hours a day, 7 days a week at 604-969-7540.

Anyone with any information, or who wishes to report, is asked to contact the North Vancouver RCMP tip line at 236-481-9100.
