Owner Of Stow Gymnastics Academy Charged With Raping Teen

STOW (CBS) – A gymnastics coach is facing rape charges after he allegedly assaulted a 17-year-old student multiple times at his Stow gymnastics facility.

David Auger, 41, of Hudson, owned 10.0 Academy of Gymnastics, when he allegedly assaulted the victim and used his position to control her from January 2018 to July 2019. Police allege the assaults began when the student was 17 and continued until she was 18.

"One of the reasons for putting the information out about cases is to find out whether there are other people who know things or other people who may have been victimized," Middlesex District Attorney Marian Ryan said.

Auger was arraigned Friday in Concord District Court and was released on $5,000 bail. He has been ordered to have no contact with the victim and no unsupervised contact with children younger than 18. He has also been ordered to stay away from his gym.
