NRP made the arrest today at a St. Catharines home

A 43-year old St. Catharines man has been charged with possession of child pornography.

Police began this month looking into the use of Child Sexual Abuse Material online for a certain case, and as a result, used a search warrant today at a home in St. Catharines.

They found a number of electronic devices capable of storing data, and arrested Justin Joseph Fournier.

He was held in custody, set for a bail hearing today in St. Catharines.

A reminder from police offenders try to lure children behind anonymous accounts, but they will be caught and held accountable.
