The Thunder Bay Police Service has arrested a local man on child pornography charges.

Police began an investigation in October after receiving information that a local internet user was suspected of uploading child pornography.

Through the investigation, a suspect and local address were identified.

A search warrant was executed at a residence on the city’s south side on Thursday morning leading to the suspect’s arrest and a number of electronic devices being seized.

The suspect appeared in court on December 14, and has been remanded into custody with a future court appearance date.
