Danbury Man Charged for Sexual Abuse of Minor: Police

DANBURY, CT —Police arrested a man following a Special Victims Unit investigation into the sexual abuse of a minor.

Edmund Paris, 39, of Beaver Brook Road in Danbury was arrested by police on Friday, Dec. 7. The arrest was made following an investigation and the issuance of a Superior Court warrant related to an investigation regarding the sexual abuse of a minor child, according to the police report.

Police charged Paris with sexual assault in the fourth degree, two counts of sexual assault in the first degree, two counts of aggravated sexual assault of a minor, two counts of risk of injury to a minor with sexual contact, and two counts of risk of injury to a minor/impairing morals.

The arrest stems from allegations made earlier this year by an adult man that Paris had sexually assaulted the man when he was a child, according to the News Times.

Paris is being held on a $500,000 bond.
