An Iowa City teen faces charges that he groped a 13-year-old girl.
The alleged incident happened last Valentine’s Day at Regina High School on Rochester Avenue. Iowa City Police say 18-year-old Shawn Brandt of North Dubuque Street, who was 17 at the time of the alleged incident, was in a back hallway with the 13-year-old student when he touched her breasts against her will. Brandt allegedly failed to immediately stop when the girl told him to.
Brandt self-reported the incident to police, saying he was sorry for what happened. Last week he was charged with Assault, a Simple Misdemeanor punishable by a maximum of 30 days in jail.
