An investigation started this summer now has a suspect in custody.

Winnipeg Police Service says an online gaming company contacted them on June 7 of this year to report that a suspect in Winnipeg was requesting nude images from minors and offering nude images to minors.

Investigators from the WPS Internet Exploitation Unit initiated an undercover online investigation using a profile of a 13-year-old.

"This investigation involved the suspect entering into a conversation with an undercover officer on social media. The suspect sent numerous nude images and a video, and requested nude images from the undercover officer. The officer stated numerous times that they were only 13 years old," says WPS.

WPS says the accused asked the undercover officer via social media, to perform sex acts should they actually meet.

On October 7 of this year, WPS investigators obtained and executed a search warrant on a residence in Winnipeg and arrested a suspect.

The 22-year-old man has been charged and is now in custody for two counts of Luring a Person Under 16 Years of age by Means of Telecommunication, Luring a Person Under 18 Years of age by Means of Telecommunication, three counts of Transmit Sexually Explicit Material to a Child, and Possession of Child Pornography

"The investigation has led officers to believe that there may be unidentified victims," says WPS.
