ALEXANDER, Ark. (AP) - An Alexander police officer was arrested after his girlfriend summoned for help on his police radio.
The Pulaski County Sheriff's Office says the two scuffled on the parking lot of the police station. The officer, John Ensminger, was arrested on a third-degree domestic battery charge, a misdemeanor.
His girlfriend, April Tirado, who also is a police officer for Pine Bluff, didn't require medical attention.
Authorities say the two argued after a woman called Ensminger's cell phone and Tirado threw
the phone out the window of his patrol car. When they arrived at the Alexander Police Department, the argument turned into a fight and Tirado was bruised. During the struggle, she grabbed his police radio and called for help.
