Police issued a news release Wednesday which said investigators believe there may be more victims of prostitution offences related to this incident.

Detectives launched an investigation on July 9 this year into allegations that a man had attempted to recruit an underage victim to work in the sex trade, the release said.

The man has coached young females in basketball across Peel Region for the last 10 years, police added.

Brampton resident Nathaniel Peters, 33, was arrested on Monday, charged with procuring a person under the age of 18.
