Leifur

Aformer Gulf Breeze Police officer Duane Leifur, 38 was arrested on Jan. 25 on charges of sexual battery and unlawful compensation. The arrest stemmed from a complaint that Leifur demanded sex from a citizen after a traffic stop in April. Leifur resigned from the force in July.

Police documents said Leifur had sexual contact with the victim over a period of three months last year.

Gulf Breeze Police officials said the Florida Department of Law Enforcement was handling the investigation and declined to comment on the case.
