A man who once worked as a police chief in a North Carolina community was jailed this week, accused of raping a 16-year-old girl.
William Chad Green was arrested on Sunday, April 6, on one count of rape.
Local news channels, citing the arrest warrant in this case, reported that the suspect, 51, is accused of raping a girl on Friday, April 4.
The warrant alleges that Green forced himself on a girl who was “mentally disabled or physically incapacitated.”
The warrant states that Green “should have known or should have known that the victim was mentally retarded or physically incapacitated.”
Records show that a warrant was issued on Saturday, April 5, and that Green was arrested the next morning on a charge of aggravated rape.
He was taken to the Stanley County Jail where he is being held on a $500,000 bond.
Green was previously an officer with the Norwood Police Department in Stanley County, serving there from September 2008 to May 2010. He later served as Norwood’s police chief from August 2014 to June 2015.
The Oakboro Police Department also confirmed that Green was an officer with their police force at one time.
It was not clear whether Green was asked if he pleaded guilty or if he had retained a lawyer to face the allegations against him.
