A Waterloo Regional Police Service (WRPS) officer has been arrested for the fourth time this year, according to a release from WRPS.

The officer, a patrol supervisor assigned to North Division who has been with the force for 17 years, was arrested on Thursday by officers in London, Ont. He will remain in custody in that city until Monday, August 28 in advance of a bail hearing.

WRPS said the man has been charged with one count of criminal harassment and one count of breach of undertaking.

The officer was originally arrested on January 19 and charged with six counts of assault, one count of assault with a weapon and one count of sexual assault. Those incidents are alleged to have taken place between May 2013 and March 2015.

The officer was arrested again on February 2 and charged with breaching the terms of the January release.

On June 21, the officer was arrested again for allegedly breaching court orders in relation to the February release.

Waterloo Region Police said in its release the officer has been suspended with pay, under the Police Services Act of Ontario.

Police are not releasing the name of the officer, because they say the case is family-related and releasing any more details may identify the victim.
