More sexual assault charges levelled at suspended fire chief.

Three more alleged sexual assault victims are being tied to Kingsville's suspended fire chief Rob Kissner.

The 60-year-old is facing three more counts of sexual assault, two more charges of sexual exploitation and a new charge of sexual interference.

On December 10, 2016, Kissner was charged with two counts each of sexual assault and sexual exploitation related to the alleged sexual assault of a minor.

In total, police say Kissner is being charged in relation to four complainants.

Kissner is out of police custody at the moment and is due back in court at a later date to answer to the new charges.

After the initial charges, the Town of Kingsville launched an internal investigation to ensure the safety and well being of its staff.

Kissner has been suspended with pay from the Kingsville fire service.
