HeadlinePolice officer charged for three counts of sexual assault

CAYO DISTRICT, Mon. Jan. 25, 2021– A police officer has been charged with three counts of sexual assault after a 19-year-old woman filed an official complaint against him. PC Edgar Teul, the officer in question, is no stranger to the law. Back in 2013, he was investigated for a case of theft reported by Thyrell Hyde. This time, Teul has allegedly committed a more serious offense.

On January 18th , the young lady went to the police station in Succotz Village to post bail for her common-law husband. The victim claims that while in the police station she was sexually assaulted on three occasions by PC Teul.

Reports are that Teul resides in the upper flat of the police station building. PC Teul is currently interdicted from duty, and police continue to investigate his case.
