CORNWALL - A 34-year-old Ottawa Police officer had his first court date Tuesday to face charges of assaulting two children from a small North Stormont town.

The Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry OPP's Crime Unit arrested the officer on Nov. 14.

He was charged him with two counts of assault with a weapon and two counts of assault causing bodily harm following alleged incidents between February and October.

The Ottawa Police and the OPP are not releasing the officer's name or the names of the victims "to protect the victims' privacy and prevent further victimization."

OPP Sgt. Kristine Rae said said the children are known to the officer.

The officer has been suspended from active duty with pay.

The Ottawa Police Service's Professional Standards Section is investigating the officer's conduct.

He is due to appear in court again in late January.
