A Ewing Township man employed as a nurse has been charged with multiple counts of criminal sexual contact after allegedly inappropriately touching patients at Penn Medicine Princeton Medical Center, authorities said.
Andre Angus, 39, was arrested Dec. 11 and charged with three counts of fourth-degree criminal sexual contact, according to Middlesex County Prosecutor Yolanda Ciccone and Plainsboro Police Chief Eamon Blanchard.
Angus is accused of engaging in inappropriate sexual contact with patients while they were under his care.
Several incidents were reported by patients, prompting an investigation by the Plainsboro Police Department and the Middlesex County Prosecutor’s Office Special Victim’s Unit.
Investigators identified Angus as the person responsible for the alleged misconduct.
The investigation remains ongoing, officials said. Anyone with additional information is asked to contact Det. Haley Hlavka of the Middlesex County Prosecutor’s Office at 732-745-3287 or Det. Dan Larocca of the Plainsboro Police Department at 609-799-2333.
Angus has not yet entered a plea. The charges against him are accusations, and he is presumed innocent until proven guilty, authorities said.
