In a disturbing turn of events, a 60-year-old man from Thorold has been apprehended by local authorities on serious child pornography charges. The Niagara Regional Police initiated an investigation last month after uncovering instances of child sexual abuse material, which directed them to the suspect’s residence in Thorold.
