Woodstock police are looking for anyone with information about a historical assault on a child that allegedly took place over 25 years ago.

Officers started an investigation into the allegations earlier this month for incidents that allegedly occurred between 1991 to 1995 involving a male victim who was a child at the time.

The alleged assaults took place at a home daycare in Woodstock that was open for approximately 25 years during the 1980s and 1990s.

On Wednesday, a 73-year-old male and a 73-year-old female were charged with assault, uttering threats and assault causing bodily harm.

Police say the two had ties to Ingersoll, Fenwick and Walkerton and may have had a daycare or worked with children in these locations.
