Two NSW police officers have been charged with the assault of a 92-year-old man following an incident in south west Sydney earlier this year after reports of a domestic incident.
The alleged assault took place at a home in Picton, after 8.45pm on Sunday 21 January 2024.
A 92-year-old man received injuries which were allegedly the result of an interaction with the officers.
He was rushed to hospital with a fracture to his right elbow, and significant bruising to his head and arms.
