MONTREAL — The Montreal Alouettes say fullback Christophe Normand has been suspended pending the outcome of a luring investigation.

Court records show Normand is facing two charges of luring a child, including one count of luring a child under 16.

Provincial police Sgt. Audrey-Anne Bilodeau said the 30-year-old Normand was arrested after a search at his home by police investigators on the morning of Aug. 19.

He appeared in court on Thursday.
