A 31-year-old Toronto man has been charged in a human trafficking case involving an underage girl.

Police allege a man recruited and trafficked the girl for sexual services throughout Toronto.

They further allege he manipulated her to have sex with men for money, then forced her to give him her earnings.

Investigators say the girl eventually fled and contacted police.

A suspect was arrested in mid-April and charged with multiple offences, including trafficking in persons under 18 and procuring a person under 18.

Police are asking anyone with information about the case to come forward.
