Const. Alexandre Bolduc, a nine-year officer with the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) has been charged with two counts of assault in connection with an incident at the Hawkesbury detachment on July 1, 2024.
The OPP’s Professional Standards Unit launched an investigation into the incident in July, and two officers were suspended with pay. Bolduc was charged on Nov. 22.
On Nov. 23, the OPP said that said Const. Alexandre Bolduc had been released from custody and was scheduled to appear in L’Orignal court.
At about 2 a.m. on July 1, a vehicle was observed driving through the staff parking lot of the Hawkesbury detachment in what was described as a suspicious manner, said the media release. Officers responded as two individuals exited the vehicle and the interaction led to the duo receiving injuries that required medical treatment.
The Professional Standards Unit investigation remained ongoing.
