A man accused of assaulting a senior at a Didsbury care home has been found not guilty.

Maximino Garcia, who is now 50, was found not guilty following a trial on Oct. 3, 2024 in Didsbury Provincial Court.

It was said by police in November 2023 that the alleged actions had occurred between September 2021 and August 2022. But it was in November 2023 that they received a report about the alleged abuse.

An arrest took place shortly thereafter.

The victim was said to have been 87 at the time.
