TUSCALOOSA, Ala. – A retired Tuscaloosa police officer has been indicted on a sodomy charge after a young girl said she was sexually abused by him.
A grand jury handed down the indictment earlier this week for 67-year-old Issac "Andy" Baker. Police say the family of the victim told authorities in May that Baker abused the girl while she stayed at the home-based daycare center his wife runs.
The girl's exact age isn't known, but she is younger than 12.
Tuscaloosa police say Baker was a patrol officer from 1975 to 2000.
