AN Avon and Somerset police constable has been accused of assaulting a member of the public and making a "discriminatory comment" to a fellow officer.
PC Perry, while off duty in August 2021, is alleged to have told a colleague words to the effect: "Why don't you go back to your own country?"
It is also claimed that PC Perry, while off duty in the same month, assaulted a member of the public, left the scene and refused to return to speak to attending officers.
He is accused of breaching the Standards of Professional Behaviour, including honesty and integrity; authority, respect and courtesy; equality and diversity; discreditable conduct; and duties and responsibilities.
A misconduct hearing taking place at Avon and Somerset Police headquarters in Portishead on Tuesday, November 1 will decide whether or not PC Perry, who is currently suspended from duties, is guilty of gross misconduct.
