THUNDER BAY – Thunder Bay Police arrested seventy-one-year old David John Bythell for Breach of a Prohibition Order in Relation to Children on February 17, 2016.

The prohibition order relates to conviction of sexual offences from 2006/2007 in Southern Ontario.
He appeared in court this morning and was released with a future court date.
Anyone who has additional information about this incident is asked to contact the police at 684-1200 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
