SIU charges Windsor cop with 4 counts of sexual assault
The alleged offences involved a woman between 2011 to 2015

Director of the SIU, Joseph Martino, says there is reasonable grounds that the criminal offences took place in Windsor involving a woman between 2011 and 2015.
The investigation into Staff Sgt. Ken Price began in January.

Price is due in court July 18, 2024, according to the SIU.
"As the matter is before the courts, and in consideration of the fair trial interests of the accused, the SIU will not provide further comment on the investigation," in said in a statement.
