HUNTINGTON, Ind.
A judge has ordered a Huntington police officer held on $20,000 bond on a charge that he engaged in sexual contact with a 15-year-old girl.
Forty-one-year-old William Wike Jr. appeared in Huntington County Court on Thursday.
Whitley County Chief Deputy Prosecutor D.J. Sigler says Wike is accused of touching the girl, then 15, in a sexual manner sometime in late 2006 or early 2007. Sigler says the charges do not relate to Wike's work as a police officer in the city about 25 miles southwest of Fort Wayne.
Huntington Police Chief S. Thomas Emely says Wike faces suspension pending the outcome of the case.
