Sky-Hi News Staff

Former Fraser-Winter Park Police Officer Kyle Sandusky, 27, was in Grand County Court on Tuesday, Feb. 28, for an advisement hearing where he was formally charged with burglary, criminal tampering , and official misconduct.

His next court date will be in April for a pretrial conference via telephone.

An arrest warrant was issued on Feb. 9, when Sandusky turned himself in to the Jefferson County Jail.



The charges stem from incidents that began at a Winter Park restaurant/bar where Sandusky allegedly became intoxicated, according to the affidavit for the arrest warrant. He later committed the crimes in Grand Lake, the affidavit alleges.

Sandusky was placed on administrative leave on Jan. 14 as soon as department officials learned about the allegations. He resigned on Feb. 3.
