Editor’s Note: CityNews was made aware in June 2026 that the charges against the accused were stayed. Adjustments to the story have since been made.
Police say a massage therapist in south Edmonton has been charged with four counts of sexual assault, and authorities believe there could be more victims.
The Edmonton Police Service says the man was arrested following a Sexual Assault Section investigation that began in August.
“While this investigation was taking place, three additional complainants reported similar concerns involving the same male RMT (registered massage therapist),” EPS allege in a news release.
The accused’s RMT licence has been cancelled by the industry’s governing body, according to police. His next court appearance is Dec. 12.
Police believe he may still be practising massage therapy in Edmonton; they are encouraging any other complainants to come forward.
Potential victims are asked to contact the EPS at 780-423-4567.
