OKC police officer accused of rape, domestic assault and battery

An Oklahoma City police officer was arrested and booked into jail Saturday on complaints including rape, domestic assault and battery, and kidnapping.

Sgt. Ryan Len Stark was booked into the McClain County jail at 12:43 p.m.

Online booking records show Stark also faces complaints of threatening to perform an act of violence, use of a firearm while committing a felony and disrupting, preventing or interrupting an emergency phone call.

Online court records do not show formal charges filed yet. The Oklahoma City Police Department did not immediately return a request for comment Sunday.

KOCO-TV reported that Blanchard police were notified of a possible domestic assault Friday involving Stark and an alleged victim leaving a restaurant in a police vehicle.

Stark allegedly became upset when the victim said they did not want to go to his home, according to the report.

He is accused of raping the victim at his home and denying them medical attention.

In 2014, Stark was cleared of criminal charges after a fatal shooting incident that resulted in the death of his K-9 police dog.

Cleveland County District Attorney Greg Mashburn found that the use of force by Sgt. Ryan Stark was justified and appropriate under the law.

During the 2014 incident, Stark and other officers responded to a business burglary in southeast Oklahoma City. The suspect led police on a high-speed chase that ended with the suspect stabbing Stark’s K-9 police dog, Kye.

According to police, Stark attempted to separate the suspect from the dog before drawing his gun and fatally shooting him.

Kye died the next day after complications from surgery.
