A Tom Price man has been charged with nearly a dozen sex offences — including four counts of sexual penetration — after allegedly sexually and indecently assaulting two girls aged under 13. Police revealed on Friday that detectives from the Pilbara joint response team had charged a 34-year-old man over the alleged incidents between March 2024 and June 2025. Officers allegedly uncovered several photographs and videos of child exploitation material after seizing the man’s electronic devices. He has been charged with four counts of sexual penetration of a child under 13, two counts of indecent dealings with a child under 13, two counts of producing child exploitation material, one count of possessing child exploitation material and one count of attempted sexual penetration of a child under 13. He has also been charged with one count of carnal knowledge of an animal and will face Perth Magistrates Court on Friday. “The WA Police Force understands that reports of offences against children are deeply distressing for the community,” a police spokesperson said. “Protecting children and ensuring their safety is our highest priority. “Specialist detectives and support services are working tirelessly to investigate these matters and provide care for victims. “Every child deserves to feel safe and we are committed to holding offenders accountable.”
