A 27 year old Niagara Falls man has been arrested accused of possessing child pornography.
Back in December, members of the Niagara Regional Police Service Internet Child Exploitation started an investigation that led them to a home in Niagara Falls.
Today, police officers with ICE, the Technological Crimes Unit and the Cybercrime Unit executed a search warrant at the house.
A number of computer systems and storage media were seized and forensically examined.
As a result of the investigation, 27 year old Nicholas Johnson of Niagara Falls was arrested and charged with Possession of Child Pornography, Accessing Child Pornography and Making Available Child Pornography.
Johnson will be held in custody pending a bail hearing which will take place on Friday, January 19th, 2018 at the Robert S.K. Welch Courthouse, located at 59 Church Street, St. Catharines, Ontario.
