A Met Police counter terror firearms officer once named the bravest officer in England and Wales has been suspended after allegedly sexually assaulting a woman at a train station.
Sergeant Stephen Brown, 47, is claimed to have sexually touched the woman without her consent at Biggleswade Railway Station on November 29 2019.
The force said: 'We are aware that a serving Met officer has been charged with sexual assault following an alleged incident in November 2019. He is currently suspended.'
Brown was previously the recipient of a national bravery award in 2014 after he tackled a samurai sword-wielding attacker.
The knifeman repeatedly lunged at him with the weapon until the officer moved inside its arc and struck him with his metal baton.
