    A North Vancouver man has been arrested and charged with child luring and invitation to

    sexual touching a female under 16 and Surrey RCMP are encouraging other potential

    victims to come forward.

    Victor Marco Antonio Overfield, 27, was arrested and charged Dec. 19, 2014.

    The offences allegedly took place in early November last year and Surrey Mounties were

    contacted a month later. Overfield was charged Dec. 19.

    Police say Overfield volunteered with the Royal Canadian Sea Cadets in North Vancouver

    from 2007 to 2012 and with the Navy League Cadets in Vancouver from 2012 until his

    arrest late last year.

    Surrey RCMP Cpl. Bert Paquet said there is no indication there are additional victims, but

    police have released Overfield's identity out of an abundance of caution.

    "If there's even one victim out there, we need to be in contact," he said, adding the release

    of Overfield's volunteer work with cadet groups was also intentional. "In that capacity, he

    would have been in touch with under-age persons."

    scheduled for March 13 in Surrey Provincial Court.
