Glace Bay Man Facing Sexual Assault Charge

Regional Police have identified the man accused of sexually assaulting a woman at a home in Glace Bay over the weekend.

50 year-old Robert Glen White is facing charges of Sexual Assault with a Weapon, Assault with a Weapon, Possession of a Weapon for a Dangerous Purpose and breaching court orders.

Police say they were called to a home on Lower MacLean Street at about 11 o’clock on Sunday night, when they got a report of a man threatening a woman with a knife.

They say a 22 year-old Sydney woman was taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries, and it was later learned she’d been sexually assaulted.

Police say the woman and White know each other.
