Teen sexually assaulted at 'out-of-control' Lethbridge party: police
Lethbridge police have laid charges against a man accused of sexually assaulting a teen girl at a party.
Police say officers responded to a home in the 100 block of McGill Boulevard nine times between Aug. 6 and Sept. 22 for a series of "out-of-control parties."
Complainants reported loud music, large groups of young people causing a disturbance and fireworks being set off at all hours of the night.
During their investigation, police learned that a 15-year-old girl had been sexually assaulted at one of the parties.
"Further investigation determined the incident occurred inside the home and was recorded by multiple partygoers," Lethbridge police said in a Thursday news release.
Justin Chad Leavitt, 41, is charged with sexual assault, sexual interference, uttering threats to cause death or bodily harm, causing a disturbance and 11 counts of mischief.
Leavitt has been released from custody and is scheduled to appear in court Oct. 10.
