Ignace man charged in cold case

OPP have laid charges against an Ignace man in a cold case investigation that dates back to the mid 80's.


Between 1985 and 1987, Thunder Bay OPP looked into a number of cases where a man wearing a disguise and at times brandishing a weapon entered homes and sexually assaulted women.

A man was arrested and charged in 1987 but the charges were dismissed 2-years later.

Police reopened the case in 2007 and today arrested 62-year-old Donald Milani.

Milani has been charged with 19-offences including break and enter, sexual assault, wearing a disguise while committing an indictable offence, forcible confinement and robbery.

He has been released and scheduled in Court on August 30th.
