A 47-year-old Pickering, Ontario man has been charged with historical sexual offences against a teenaged female hockey player he was coaching over a decade ago.
York Regional Police say the man, identified as Lorne Rappaport, sexually assaulted the 15-year-old victim between 2009 and 2011 while he was coaching a competitive girls hockey player in the Toronto area.
Rappaport was arrested on February 19, 2021.
"The accused has been a hockey coach and ran various hockey camps and training programs for many years. Investigators want to ensure that there are no additional victims and are asking anyone with information to come forward," police wrote.
The man has been charged with two counts of sexual assault, one count of sexual interference with a person under 16, one count of sexual exploitation, and invitation to sexual touching.
