HIGH POINT, N.C. — A Triad chiropractor was arrested Wednesday after being accused of sexual battery and exposing himself to a patient.
High Point police said they arrested 64-year-old Jeffrey Fricke at his practice on Lexington Avenue.
Court documents show that Fricke forced himself on a woman as he was performing treatment for back pain.
Investigators said the crimes happened last Friday and Fricke has since bonded out.
Police said he is facing the following charges:
- 1 count of misdemeanor sexual battery
- 1 count of misdemeanor indecent exposure
The North Carolina State Board of Chiropractic Examiners said they have opened an investigation into Fricke and that he has been a licensed chiropractor in North Carolina since 1985.
