Officer Paul Ewing Indicted on 5 Counts of Indecent Liberties with Minor


PORTSMOUTH

A former city police officer was indicted Thursday on five counts each of indecent liberties with a minor and production of child pornography, the department reported.

Paul Alonzo Ewing, of the 600 block of Shenandoah St., was a four-year veteran when he resigned in October, shortly after being arrested and charged with raping a 16-year-old acquaintance almost two years earlier. Thursday’s indictments were in addition to the rape charge, which is still pending a court hearing, police said.

A special prosecutor will be appointed to handle the case, the city commonwealth’s attorney’s office has said.
