Curry College officer fired following arrest

MILTON, Mass. (AP) - A rookie Curry College campus police officer has been fired amid allegations that he broke into his ex-girlfriend's home and pointed a gun at her.

A spokeswoman says 26-year-old Paul Kodzis started in March but no longer works at the Milton college.

Kodzis pleaded not guilty earlier this week to charges including assault with a dangerous weapon, home invasion with a firearm, and domestic assault.

Authorities say a woman in a Marshfield home awoke early Monday morning to find Kodzis in her room, standing over her, pointing a baton and gun at her, and yelling.

The gun was not fired and no one was hurt.

Kodzis turned himself in Monday evening.

He is being held without bail pending a dangerousness hearing Friday. He could not be reached for comment.
