Toronto chess teacher charged in sex assault on girl, 10


TORONTO - A former chemical weapons inspector who teaches chess to kids in Scarborough is accused of sexually assaulting a young girl.

Toronto Police say a sexual interference investigation was launched after an alleged incident last Saturday involving an instructor and a 10-year-old student at the Philip Math Chess Academy on McNicoll Ave., just east of Victoria Park Ave.

“The girl was only registered in the class for a short period time,” Det.-Const. Julia Brown said Thursday. “She had two classes with the accused.”

She said the alleged incident happened during class hours.

“The girl told her parents what happened a couple of days later and they contacted police,” Brown said.

Erwin Casareno, 55, of Toronto, was arrested Wednesday. He is charged with sexual assault, sexual interference and invitation to sexual touching.  (more...)
