A former massage therapist in Halifax is facing more sexual assault charges.

Police say the 43-year-old man was arrested in March for one count of sexual assault for an incident that allegedly happened during an appointment.

It was when he was working at a business on Lacewood Drive.

The man appeared in court April 14 to face that charge.

Since, more victims have come forward and police are laying five additional sexual assault charges against the suspect.

He will appear in court in June.

The investigation is ongoing.
