They will appear in Hamilton court on Feb. 7.
The individual already had a court date in Toronto on Jan. 15, the same day the new charges were announced by WRPS.
That stemmed from an incident in Toronto on June 1, 2024 where they were charged with two counts of assault.
The WRPS member has not been named. In June, police said the individual was suspended with pay.
The most recent update from WRPS said, “The member has been suspended without pay per the requirements of the Community Safety and Policing Act of Ontario.”
