By Jennifer McRae, CBS Denver:

AURORA, Colo. (CBS4) – Josiah Seth Coe, an Aurora police officer, has resigned from the department and is facing a felony charge of distributing a controlled substance, according to information gathered Tuesday night by CBS4. Coe resigned from the Aurora Police Department after allegedly admitting to an Aurora police sergeant that he gave illicit narcotics to another person.

In early March, a citizen notified Aurora police that Coe, 32, had allegedly supplied her with a controlled substance while he was working security in uniform at an off-duty assignment.
