Police seek Durham witnesses in coach's sex assault case

Jun 29, 2009 - 02:19 PM

DURHAM -- Police have renewed their call for information from potential witnesses after another historical sex assault charge was laid against a former figure skating coach.

The call for information came Monday as Toronto police announced more charges have been laid against 52-year-old Wayne Michael Sanderson. The Belleville man was first charged in May with sexually assaulting a girl he coached in the GTA between 1982 and 1986.

Since that time another woman, now 45, has come forward to allege she was sexually assaulted by the man in Toronto when she was 16.

Toronto police said in a media release they are concerned there may be more victims in the Ajax, Pickering, Uxbridge and Orangeville areas. Anyone with information is asked to call investigators at 416-808-3305 or 416-222-8477.

Mr. Sanderson's son Don, a hockey player who played with the Whitby Dunlops, died in January after falling and hitting his head on the ice during an in-game fight.
