A Cleveland police officer has been indicted on charges of attempted kidnapping and multiple sexual offenses involving a 12 year old girl, according to the Cuyahoga County Prosecutor’s Office.
Prosecutor Michael O’Malley said officer Solomon Nhiwatiwa, 34, was off duty last Friday when he drove past the girl at a school bus stop and asked if she needed a ride. Prosecutors say she refused and he drove away, then returned about a minute later. According to O’Malley, he approached her, exposed himself and urinated on her while appearing to record the incident on his cell phone.
O’Malley called the alleged incident "impossible to comprehend."
According to court records, the indictment charges Nhiwatiwa with attempted kidnapping with sexual motivation, pandering obscenity involving a minor, disseminating matter harmful to juveniles, endangering children, criminal child enticement, public indecency, assault, interference with custody and attempt counts. The charges are allegations, and he is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.
O’Malley said his office will hold the officer accountable and make sure he never serves as a police officer again. Nhiwatiwa is scheduled to appear in court on August 26. Baller Alert did not have a response from the officer at the time of publication.
