CHARLOTTE, N.C. An Army recruiter has been arrested after a woman who was interested in joining the military claims he groped her at a Charlotte office.

The Charlotte Observer reported that 45-year-old Sgt. Charlie Landrum Ingram was charged with sexual battery and false imprisonment Thursday in connection with the Feb. 3 incident.

Charlotte-Mecklenburg police say a 20-year-old woman told investigators that Ingram made inappropriate sexual comments and took her to a supply closet where he fondled her.

Ingram was released Friday on $5,000 bail. He refused to speak with the newspaper about the charges.

Army spokeswoman Leslie Ann Sully says Ingram is on leave until next week when he will return on administrative duty.



unhappycamper comment: I would hope his 'administrative duty' soon includes making small rocks out of big rocks.
