Saskatoon police arrest suspect in historical sexual assault

A 47-year-old man wanted in connection with sexual assaults that occurred nearly 15 years ago is now in police custody.

Kenneth Dauphinais turned himself into police Tuesday and was charged with sexual assault and overcoming resistance to commission of offence.

Dauphinais was wanted earlier this week when police asked the public for information, saying he was wanted in connection with sexual assaults that took place in Saskatoon between 2007 and 2008.

Dauphinais has lived most recently in Milk River, Alta., but he has ties to Saskatoon, Calgary and Winnipeg.
