BRANTFORD — A Waterloo Regional Police officer has been assigned to desk duties after being charged with assault.

Const. Gerry Christopher, a 10-year member of the service, was charged in connection with a March 18 incident that police say occurred outside the jurisdiction of Waterloo Region. He was not on duty at the time.

He was arrested by Brantford police on March 18.

Christopher had been working in the break and enter unit in Waterloo but has since been reassigned to administrative duties.

Police aren’t releasing much more information on the incident.

“We’re unable to discuss the details of the incident but in the interest of transparency and accountability we want to ensure our community is aware that one of our police officers has been charged criminally,” said Supt. Steve Beckett.

Christopher has been charged with assault and with being unlawfully in a dwelling house with intent to commit an indictable offence.

A dwelling house is a residence.

He is scheduled to appear in Brantford Provincial Court on May 6.
