According to police in Nevada, physical therapist is accused of sexually harassing at least one client

A Las Vegas physical therapist was arrested after being accused of sexually assaulting a client during a session – and now authorities are searching for more victims, Nevada state officials told news outlets.

Brady Powell, 42, a licensed physical therapist at Premier Physical Therapy and Sports Performance in North Las Vegas, was arrested Feb. 1 after being accused of sexually assaulting a client during a session, according to a police news release obtained by FOX 5.

McClatchy News reached out to North Las Vegas police on June 6 for more information and is awaiting a response.

According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, Powell is accused of “rubbing his crotch on” the victim during physical therapy appointments.

On February 14, another victim filed suit against Powell, claiming he touched her “inappropriately four times and exposed his genitals to her once,” the outlet reported.

The man was booked into the North Las Vegas Community Correctional Center on seven counts of open and gross indecency, with additional charges pending, according to KSNV.

The alleged crimes occurred between August and November 2022, FOX 5 reported.

Anyone who believes they may have been a victim of Powell is asked to call North Las Vegas police at 702-633-9111, media reported.
