CONCORD, N.H. (AP) - A Concord police officer accused of assaulting a woman and pressuring her to lie about it has been charged with multiple felonies.
The attorney general’s office said Friday that 39-year-old Bryan Croft has been charged with second degree assault, witness tampering, and falsifying physical evidence. He also faces a misdemeanor domestic violence charge.
Authorities say he tried to strangle the woman and slammed a door on her arm in October, told her to lie to investigators about her injuries and ordered her to delete photos and video from her phone.
The attorney general’s office said Croft was a Concord police officer at the time of the alleged crimes. Concord police did not return a call seeking comment Friday. A phone number for Croft was unavailable, and it was unknown whether he has an attorney.
