Male childcare worker on sexual assault charges

A 28-year-old Scullin man is facing court charged with  indecently assaulting two children and physically assaulted another while working at a childcare facility.  

Police received reports from two parents this month regarding alleged indecent assaults against their children while attending a Canberra daycare facility.

The man was arrested yesterday (May 29) and charged with two counts of acts of indecency against a child under 10 years and one count of common assault. His employment at the child-care facility had recently been terminated.

Police say support is being provided to the facility and families involved.
