An Ontario Provincial Police officer has been accused of secretly videotaping an undressed woman on two different occasions.

Investigators say they found two instances where the officer, who was off-duty at the time, covertly made "visual recordings" of a woman while "she was in a state of undress."



One incident occurred in Toronto while the other occurred in York Region, the OPP alleged. The incidents in question occurred between Jan. 2000 and Dec. 2002.

The OPP Professional Standards Bureau began probing the allegations in November of last year. Police say the incidents did not occur at work and investigators maintain that no OPP property was used.

Insp. Jeffery Steers, 44, faces two counts of mischief. He's set to appear in court on March 9.

Steers is a 23-year veteran of the OPP working in the Highway Safety Division. He has been suspended from duty.
