York police officer charged with raping baby quits as commissioner works to fire him

A York police officer resigned from the department last week, days after he was charged with raping a baby in northern Dauphin County, the city’s police commissioner said.

In an 8-minute Facebook video uploaded Monday, York City police Commissioner Michael Muldrow addressed the situation involving now-former Officer Steven K. Cugini and the child rape charges filed against him on April 16.

Muldrow said the department immediately placed Cugini on paid leave on April 16 after learning of the criminal investigation. He was switched to unpaid leave the following day.
