A 21-year-old man is facing several charges related to an alleged sexual assault at Hampton Park early Saturday morning. After paramedics responded to reports of an injured woman on the field, police were called to the scene. Officers went to a home in the 200 block of Burnside Road to investigate.
Saanich police cordoned off the home until they were able to complete a search of the premises later that day. The man was not a permanent resident of the home.
A woman in her 20s, who police said is not associated with the home, was taken to hospital and later released. She was not suffering life-threatening injuries.
Jaikob Johnston faces charges of sexual assault, aggravated sexual assault, attempting to choke to overcome resistance and aggravated assault. He was scheduled to appear in provincial court Tuesday afternoon.
