Trial dates have been set for an Ottawa man, arrested in connection with historic sexual assaults in Wynyard and Foam Lake.

57-year-old Gerard Loehr had his matters heard in Wadena Provincial Court Thursday, where a trial was scheduled for the week of July 27th in Wynyard.

He remains free on 5-thousand dollars bail.

In February of last year, a woman contacted Wynyard RCMP to file a report of sexual assault, dating back to between 1990 and 1996, when Loehr was a teacher in the area.

Since then, five other individuals have come forward with allegations against the same man.
