Sep 11, 2017 | 12:11 PM

A civilian guard has been charged in an alleged sexual assault at an RCMP detachment west of Edmonton.

RCMP say the guard was on duty at the time of the alleged assault in Evansburg on September 5th.

They say 69-year-old John Hansen of Sangudo was charged last Friday with sexual assault and breach of trust.

The Mounties are not providing any further comment because they say the case is now before the courts.
