FALMOUTH, Mass. — A Falmouth police officer who was on paid administrative leave has been suspended by the state.
Kevin Frye Jr, an officer with the Falmouth Police Department, was suspended by the Massachusetts Peace Officer Standards and Training (POST) Commission. In the official release, the reason for his suspension has been redacted.
Earlier this month, Frye was arrested over a domestic dispute after he allegedly assaulted and threatened a woman he was previously in a relationship with outside a Wareham bar in October.
Then, on Tuesday, a new report showed that Frye faced additional charges, including harassment and intimidation of a witness.
