A 28-year-old Hamilton man is facing a sexual assault charge after a recent attack on a female jogger on the Bruce Trail.
The woman was attacked on June 16 near the Kenilworth Access by a suspect who was armed with a knife when he tried to force her off the trail and into a quiet area.
She was able to escape and ran from the scene.
