A veteran member of the Cincinnati Police Department was recently arrested and is accused of refusing to identify himself to a fellow officer during a traffic crash investigation in Mt. Airy.
Sgt. Andre Smith, 53, was arrested Nov. 15 by Specialist Kevin Newman on a charge of failure to disclose personal information at the scene of the crash in the 2300 block of West North Bend Road, court records show.
He refused to give his name and date of birth to Newman “during investigation when a crime was suspected of being committed,” Newman wrote in a criminal complaint.
