A suspended Toronto police officer has been acquitted of assault in London, but remains locked up as he faces a string of other criminal charges.

Ned Maodus, a former member of the Toronto drug squad at the centre of a corruption probe, was acquitted of all charges Wednesday involving an alleged road rage incident.

Maodus, however, was taken back into custody to await a bail decision scheduled for Monday on charges relating to an arrest in mid-March for allegedly attacking his girlfriend with a long knife and threatening to kill her.

Over the course of the next two years, he has four other trials scheduled on a range of charges including sexual assault, police corruption and possession of drugs, all of which he has pleaded not guilty to.
