Brigeport police sergeant arrested, charged with sexual assault, police say

Sgt. Ivan Delgado, a 13-year veteran of the police department, was charged with three counts of first-degree sexual assault and three counts of risk of injury to a minor, police announced late Friday afternoon.

Delgado was processed at the Bridgeport Police Department at about 2:45 p.m. Friday and served with an arrest warrant that was not immediately made public. Police have not released any additional details about the allegations against Delgado.

Delgado was immediately placed on administrative leave without pay, per the terms of the department’s collective bargaining agreement.

“After consideration and review of all preliminary information, I have placed him on administrative leave without pay,” acting Chief Rebeca Garcia said in a statement.
