A 20-year-old swimming supervisor in Ajax has been charged in connection with the alleged sexual assault of a 15-year-old employee under his supervision, CityNews reports, citing Durham police.

Police say the investigation began after allegations were made against a male supervisor at Aqua-Tots in Ajax. Investigators allege he used his position of authority to initiate sexual contact with the employee and confined her in a workplace bathroom during the incident.
