Killeen, Texas

A police officer in Killeen was arrested Thursday and charged with sexual assault in connection with what investigators are describing as an inappropriate relationship with a 16-year-old member of the department’s Explorer Scout program.

Kirt Yarbrough Sr., a 16-year-veteran of the Killeen Police Department, was taken into custody Thursday and charged with sexual assault.

The arrest comes after an investigation that started on Jan. 4.

While the incident that led to the arrest appears to be isolated, the department’s Explorer Program, which was established in the 1980s, has been suspended to allow for a review, police said in a press release Thursday.

Department policy specifically prohibits fraternization between Explorers and adult leaders, police said.
