The chief and assistant also were charged with tampering with a witness, a felony.

An alleged sexual assault of a Texas firefighter with a sausage has resulted in an indictment against seven including the chief.

On Wednesday, an Ellis County grand jury returned the indictments charging those involved with aggravated sexual assault and attempted sexual assault, San Antonio Express reporters wrote.

Among those charged are Emergency Service District Number 6 Volunteer Fire Department firefighters Keith Edward Wisakowsky, 26; Casey Joe Stafford, 30; Preston Thomas Peyrot, 19; Alec Chase Miller, 28; and Blake Jerold Tucker, 19.

Also, Chief Gavin Satterfield and Assistant Chief William "Billy" Getzendaner have been charged with tampering with witnesses, a first-degree felony, the paper reported. 

Brittany Leanne Parten, 23, was charged Monday with improper photography or visual recording for her involvement in the alleged Jan. 20 sexual assault.

After the victim was assaulted in the firehouse in Waxahachie, he crawled to a bathroom and threw up. He later found someone had taken his clothes while he showered, forcing him to run to his car to grab an extra pair of shorts, according to accounts reported in the local media. 

When he reported it, he was warned by the chief not to report it. 

The fire marshal's office was ordered to take over the department after the January incident came to light.
