A former Williamsburg Police Department officer is behind bars following an arrest Monday evening.
Kentucky State Police officers arrested former officer Brad A. Boyd. The 45-year-old had a warrant for his arrest in connection to an investigation performed by another police agency. A source explained that Boyd was being investigated for doctor shopping.
The only official record available as of press deadline Monday night indicates that Boyd was arrested by Trooper Mike Witt, who was serving an arrest warrant for another agency. The source, however, said that Boyd will likely be charged with obtaining a controlled substance by fraud or deceit. The source could not speculate as to how many counts of the offense Boyd will face. Also according to the source, the investigation was performed by the Kentucky Inspector General’s Office.
Chief Wayne Bird of the Williamsburg Police Department confirmed that Boyd resigned as an officer sometime in May, but he could not provide an exact date for Boyd’s resignation. Bird could not comment on the circumstances surrounding Boyd’s resignation, but he indicated that more details may be available within the next few days.
