LaSalle man charged with sexually assaulting a minor

Windsor police have arrested a man on multiple charges involving sexual assault and child pornography.

The Major Crimes Unit had received a complaint earlier this month from a 15-year-old girl concerning explicit photos of herself being shared online. It turned out that two years before when she was 13, she had a sexual relationship with an adult male. During that relationship, the man allegedly took photos and videos of them having sex and distributed them.

On Sunday, police arrested 22-year-old Juan Sorja of LaSalle. He's charged with two counts of sexual assault and two counts of sexual interference. He's also accused of making, unlawfully possessing, and distributing child pornography.

The charges have not been proven in court.

The investigation is ongoing. Anyone with information should call Windsor police at (519) 255-6700, ext. 4830. Anonymous tips may be submitted to Crime Stoppers at (519) 258-TIPS (8477).
