NRP made the arrest after searching a St. Catharines home last week, investigating since January

A 28-year old St. Catharines man has been charged with accessing and possessing child pornography.

Police say they started looking in January into the uploading of material to a server, which led them to using a search warrant last Wednesday at a home in St. Catharines.

They found a number of digital devices capable of storing certain data.

Earlier today David Alexander Gomes was arrested, and will stay in custody pending a bail hearing tomorrow in St. Catharines.
