Gatineau police officer facing assault charge

By CityNews Ottawa

An officer with the Gatineau Police Service is being charged after a domestic incident last month.

Police were called after an argument between two ex-spouses. A man was accused of assault in the incident.

The man in his 30s is also a Gatineau police officer, and was arrested and released with conditions, including directions not to communicate with his ex-partner.

Quebec's director of criminal and penal prosecutions has authorized a charge of assault against the man.

The name of the accused is not being released to protect the identity of the victim.
