Laval Police are extending a big \u201cthank-you\u201d for news coverage that led to the arrest of Nicholas Chartrand Dubois, June 29\u2014a month after\u00a0The Suburban\u00a0<\/em>published a report asking for the public\u2019s help in identifying the suspect from security camera images.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe investigators told me that a lot of information came in through the Laval Police confidential tip line,\u201d Const. Franco di Genova said in an interview. \u201cThey validated each call and two of them provided a partial name which led to the arrest.\u201d<\/p>\n

The eastern Chomedey resident appeared in criminal court, July 6, to face sexual misconduct charges. He was released on bail and is slated to appear in court again, Sept. 4.<\/p>\n

Investigators alleged that around 6 p.m., April 27, Chartrand Dubois approached a 15-year-old girl near the Cartier Metro and Rosaire Gauthier park. They said that he offered to help carry her bags and pursued the teenager and molested her after she had refused and asked to be left alone.<\/p>\n

The identity of the girl was not disclosed, since she is not an adult, explained Const. di Genova, who added that Chartrand Dubois was not previously known to police.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe very much appreciate the cooperation of the news media, who enabled us to enlist the assistance of the community to help solve this crime,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
