A Calgary man has been charged with two counts of sexual assault in relation to incidents with two women he met on dating apps.
In June 2023, a woman exchanged messages with the man using a dating app and, in September, met him for a date.
After the date, the man invited her to his apartment. She agreed and they engaged in consensual activity and the woman stayed the night.
In the morning, police say the man sexually assaulted her. She immediately left.
She reported the incident to police in January.
The second woman met the same man on a dating app in December 2024. Police say after going on a few dates, she agreed to meet him at his apartment for their next date.
While she was there, they engaged in consensual activity, but then the man began to sexually assault the woman.
She left and reported the incident to police in January.
Following an investigation, Calgary resident Tuoyo Barnabas Sado, 36, was charged with two counts of sexual assault.
He's scheduled to appear in court on July 22.
