A 24-year-old man wanted in connection to the sexual assault of a young girl is in police custody.
Windsor Police said Carlos Leon was arrested in Brantford late Tuesday night.
The Major Crimes Unit started investigating earlier this month after it received a complaint that a man sexually assaulted a female under the age of 16.
It issued a public plea for information on the whereabouts of Leon, saying he had previous convictions for sexual offences.
Leon faces charges of sexual assault, sexual interference, failure to comply with a release order, and breach of probation.
