Hide AdSuperintendent Steve Taylor, of Lincolnshire Police, said: “Ms Stevenson, who was a serving PC in Louth, was suspended from duty immediately after this incident, and an assessment into formal misconduct proceedings will now follow in due course, as is procedure.”
The case was heard outside the county, as standard protocol, for impartiality reasons as Lincolnshire magistrates may know local officers on a professional basis.
