Philly cop charged with on-duty rape

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Authorities say a Philadelphia police officer has been charged with raping a woman while on duty earlier this month.

Police said today that 27-year-old Keith Corley II is charged with rape, indecent assault and related offenses.

The Philadelphia Inquirer says a 32-year-old woman told police that she was waiting for a bus in west Philadelphia at about 3:30 a.m. on Aug. 11 and Corley offered her a ride, but took her to a nearby park and assaulted her.

Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey has suspended Corley for 30 days with intent to dismiss. He has been on the force for about four years.
