DAWSON CREEK, B.C. — Mounties in Dawson Creek, B.C., are asking residents if they have any information on a man recently charged by police in Metro Vancouver.

Fifty-three-year-old Michael Dodd has been charged with sexual assault and sexual interference of a person under the age of 16.

Officers in Coquitlam executed an arrest warrant for the man last week.

Police say Dodd lived and worked in Dawson Creek until September when he moved to the Lower Mainland.

Dodd was a school teacher in the northeastern B.C. city and also taught private music classes.

Police are asking anyone who might have information on other possible offences or victims to come forward.
