A 23-year-old man from Charlottetown is facing 14 sex offence charges including child luring and sexual assault in connection to three girls from Summerside, say Charlottetown police.
Darrel Edison Worth is charged with two counts of each of the followings, according to a news release from Charlottetown police.
Sexual assault.
Sexual interference.
Invitation to sexual touching.
Transmitting child pornography.
Making sexually explicit material available to a child.
Making an agreement or an arrangement for a sexual offence against a child.
Luring a child.
The investigation began in early March following a request for a wellness check on three girls, the news release said.
On March 2 Summerside police contacted Charlottetown police to ask for the wellness check. They were concerned that the girls might be involved with an older man in Charlottetown. The girls were located, and officers found that they had encountered a man known only as Eric who had been sexually exploiting them, the news release said.
An investigation led them to Worth. He was arrested Thursday morning and made an appearance in provincial court Thursday afternoon. He remains in custody, said police.
A search warrant was also executed at Worth's home and electronic devices were seized.
Police believe there may be other potential victims. Worth predominantly used TikTok to make contact online, using the display name Eddie Worth and the username @eshaw30, said Charlottetown police.
In conversations with his alleged victims, he went by the name Eric, police added.
Charlottetown police are asking that anyone who believes they may have been victimized by Worth to contact them. Call the Charlottetown police major crime unit at 902-629-4172. Information can also be shared anonymously through Crime Stoppers.
