Charges allege ER doc committed sexual assault, domestic violence at Ashland address

COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

A man who court documents say is an emergency room doctor was charged Tuesday with four felonies after an alleged sexual and domestic assault in Ashland.

Jeffrey L. Teeter, 46, was arrested early Tuesday at an Ashland address after a woman told deputies that he had slapped her, punched her, raped her and threatened her with a gun, including firing it out a window, according to a probable cause statement.

Teeter was charged with first-degree domestic assault, unlawful use of a weapon, armed criminal action and first-degree sodomy. He was in the Boone County Jail on Wednesday without bond.

Boone County deputies found a gun and shell casings at the scene that matched the victim's story, the statement says. The woman also recorded audio of the incident, according to the statement.

The victim went to the emergency room for a sexual assault exam, the statement says.

The statement says Teeter is an emergency room doctor at a hospital in Pettis County. He has a Jefferson City address listed in court records.
