A 47-year-old Ottawa man is facing three counts of sexual assault after an investigation into incidents that date back to the 1990s.
Ottawa police say the incidents involved three different victims, aged 17, 19 and 20 at the time.
Jason Drisdelle, 47 years old, has been charged and released on a promise to appear in court on July 29.
Investigators are concerned that there could be more victims in this case.
Drisdelle was wanted on an arrest warrant late last year, as police believed he and another man were slipping drugs into the drinks of two people who were sexually assaulted on a couple of occasions. He was facing four counts of sexual assault in that case.
Anyone with information is asked to contact the Ottawa Police Sexual Assault and Child Abuse Unit at 613-236-1222, ext. 5944.
