Police in Nova Scotia say a fourth youth hockey player has been arrested in connection to a sexual assault investigation that involves alleged hazing incidents and a team in the Truro area.

Colchester County District RCMP said the youth was arrested on Thursday, and is facing charges of sexual assault and assault with choking.

Three other young players were arrested on similar charges earlier this week, after a youth reported being assaulted during a private hockey team gathering in Colchester County in October 2025.

In a news release Thursday, police said that report spurred an immediate investigation, which involved getting statements from multiple witnesses.

Staff Sgt. Marc Rose said police have since determined there were multiple alleged incidents at different times and locations in Nova Scotia.

    Like attracts like, so it doesn’t surprise me that there’s allegations of gang SA in sports… you get a clump of predators together, give them a load of prestige/protection and they’re going to do it. I feel awful for the nice people on their team

      I’ve seen loads of Reels of hockey players saying their red flags in dates. A high proportion of the players say things that make them look like the red flag
