Nova Scotia RCMP have formally charged two teen boys with sexual assault in connection with an alleged hazing incident involving members of a youth hockey team in the Truro area.

Both of the teens were 14 years old at the time of the alleged offences, which police say occurred last October.

Both of the teens are charged with sexual assault and sexual assault with a weapon. According to court documents which were sworn on Tuesday of this week, the weapon was a miniature hockey stick.

One of the teens is also charged with assault.

Both accused are free on conditions and have been ordered to stay away from three youths. They have also been banned from public locker rooms, unless accompanied by an adult.
