“He has not been in work since and has put in a sick note.

“There are strict guidelines when arresting someone at work, so the allegations must be very serious.”

“The 50-year-old officer has been placed on police bail and is not currently carrying out front-line duties while the investigation is on going.”

It is also a centre for public order training with purpose built facilities including a main arena with buildings, seats, tiered seating and stairways.
