A youth in Valleyview is facing charges after taking video of another student in the washroom of a local school in the northern town, say RCMP.

Valleyview RCMP received a report April 25 that a youth had surreptitiously taken an inappropriate video of another nude youth in the washroom at the school, police said in a Friday night news release. The video was then sent to other individuals using a social media platform.

RCMP are using the case to remind youth and adults alike that the transmission and possession of images of nude persons under the age of 18 is criminal offence.

RCMP in Valleyview, about 349 km north of Edmonton, quickly identified both the victim and accused in this case.

The voyeurism investigation continues, with charges pending.
